That's encouraging. If there are still people who believe that the earth
is flat, this help explain why people still believe in magic DACs and
amps and cable, and the like.

Real world 16/44 sometimes ends up with various kinds of dodginess
around 20-22kHz - none of which would matter if we had zero distortion

Okay so I'm late to the party. With spring now struggling to arrive here
in the northeastern US I have been busy out riding my bicycles (I have
several bicycles although I can only ride one at a time) rather than
sitting at the computer reading on-line audio forums.
So far a very interesting

I tend to think of it as a cultural thing . I'm no anthropologist and
