1. How about that one:

John is doing wild guessing too. As I said. Nobody has ever shown
what's going on.



2. "On headphones something happens. If you don't listen to headphones
there is nothing." 

Hmmh, interesting statement and "very strong argumentation". You need
to read it twice though to figure that there is a slight contradiction
in that statement. ;)

However, if you say there is nothing, there is nothing. Fair enough,
even though it sounds like your personal "opinion" to me.

I could ask you now what system are we talking about in your case - I
won't do that - since it doesn't mean anything anyhow!

To me you're confirming my finding too. If you call the changes subtle,
fair enough - in a way they are subtle. If you hear them on the
headphone
they will have a higher impact on a real good system in terms of e.g.
depth of stage. You'll never hear that kind of "stage" through your
headphones anyhow.

So, the next stage in this discussion will be that your measurements
won't show anything. If these don't show anything there is nothing,
will be the next argument. 

Phil, believe me, I had arguments about this topic at AA with Gordon
Rankin etc. It took them almost 3 years to figure out or rather to
admit that there is something they can't properly explain. 

The great thing with the Touch is that it got rid of 90% of all the
trouble making sources in comparison to a standard PC. And the other
good thing is that a little tweaking will make it even better. 

And I am also sure that a revised DUET would have been better
performing than a Touch - at least on 44.1/16. The DUET was as slim as
a streaming client(a FPGA based device) can get. 
I am sure that the Touch would face a hard time today to beat an
revised DUET( PS, SPDIF and other HW tweaks as discussed in the forum
). 


Cheers
