Yes and those web postings are on 'this' forum with evidence that using something like a Teddy PSU - costing a good deal more than a netbook alone - can significantly improve the sound quality. So perhaps there must be something in it. I know in audiophile circles that upgrading the mains (or isolating altogether if possible) is one of the first places to address for noticeable improvements in sound.

Yes Phil - I was considering using Foobar 2000 as player software because of its respect in the audiophile community - plus you can get the Foobar remote on Android now. I understand that Foobar can bypass all the internal sound card and computer volume limitations by passing the stream directly out of the USB ports for the DAC or converter to deal with (I might be wrong however). Foobar is not as feature rich as the SB software which I why I would like to run SB software on the netbook and still use the excellent Android Squeeze Commander to control it. And sample rate support is kinda low on my list of priorities seeing as nearly all my collection is 16 bit. -- stop-spinning ------------------------------------------------------------------------ stop-spinning's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43254 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88181 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
