Very kind of you, thanks, but I will pass for now. I have just got my Touch back after audioupgrades fitted the second clock (and connected the first clock which they had actually not connected- the 44.1/88.2 was still coming from the stock oscillator.) I am not touching anything until that has had a little while to settle in (or my ears have had the chance to adjust to it if you prefer.) I agree with you about the ears/brain: once you get beyond really obvious upgrades I find it very difficult to tell. Frankly every time I listen to music I find it slightly different. I am however coming round to a rather startling conclusion which is that the modification of my X-DAC has had as much of a difference on MP3s as on hi rez FLAC. While my touch was away I played CDs through my Xray v3 cd player (I really did buy into the X series) and I felt quite strongly that it was not as good a transport as the touch. This is quite significant because when it came out the X ray v3 was reviewed by Hi Fi News and praised specifically as a transport. -- adamdea ------------------------------------------------------------------------ adamdea's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37603 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78938 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
