Is it called reclocking? The idea used by Naim is really simple and elegant - the only downside being that it doesn't really warrant a fancy naim :) Buffering in a 'time-independet' way, really describes well all they are doing.
Anyway. Its up to everyone to trust in what is written or not, but the whitepaper quite well describes the design of the DAC. Personally I find it highly unlikely that Naim would publish a whitepaper in the name of the designers with false claims regarding the technical implementations used in the DAC. As for the OP's question I have not yet heard the DAC. I will do so in a bit more than one weeks time. Though this time not directly against the TP. I did however very recently have a chance to compare the TP directly against a CD5x. I wrote a longish report on a Danish forum, but the short story is that the TP does not quite cut it against a CD5x. Initial reports regarding the merits of the DAC relative to Naim's own line of cd-players may at this time be influenced by initial excitement, but still I expect the DAC to perform at least as well as a CD5x - whence the answer to your question follows... -- bhaagensen ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bhaagensen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7418 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74249 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
