Forget mono. Some think 78s do a better job of capturing the true
essence of music. And let's not even mention the Edison Cylinder!

While it's true that there is a definite Luddite tendency among many
audiophiles, it is also true that in the early days of many new and

In terms of AUDIO, 44.1khz sampling is all that is needed to capture the

assumption being that the Nyquist frequency of 44.1 divided by 2 is
adequate. If we only want frequencies up to a max of 22.050Khz then
Lupin, you don't understand Nyquist!
There are other objections, but yours is just plain wrong.

are kinks yet to be worked out. Even so, my claim is much different and

Not sure whether to post this here or in the Touch or General sections.
Hopefully someone here might be able to point me in the right
direction.
Over the last few days I have noticed that all the 48kHz flac files
played from my SB Touch through my Cyrus DAC-X are stuttering, but all
44.1, 88.2
OK, I think I have partially answered my own question. I replaced the SB
Touch with my old SB2 and now all 48kHz material seems to play fine
through the Cyrus DAC-X, so that seems to point the blame towards the SB
Touch rather than the DAC. I will bring over another SB Touch from my
office to
The subject was partly about digital transports not only the analog side
.
If digital transports differ into a decent DAC one of them is broken or
you be hearing things .
or the DAC is very weird ( it could be in this case )
If Carys SACD thing is also a tube thing it may explain stuff ,not the
