| Power cable dilemma So long as you have the right gauge and the connectors are not compromised and the cable not wired incorrectly, power cables make zero difference. Measurements prove that. Double blind listening tests also. I have owned from the most expensive to ... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Jmphotography, in the system you describe there is no fiber optic blocking all noise and as a result I completely understand that there could be improvement with a good streamer. Thank you for that feedback. | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Audio2design, I couldn’t agree more. | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Thyname it’s the select dac with the same interface you describe. Since I am receiving bit perfect signals nothing happening prior to the conversion to fiber matters IMO. If the signal was not bit perfect (msb offers an extensive test) then it cou... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Thyname thank you for the more extensive response which I hadn’t seen until now. Going for that bath now! M. | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Thyname you wrote feeding via usb and I wanted to be sure that the prousb conversion was involved. So if you know more about how your streamer would improve the signal it would be great to hear it. It goes against what msb and other steamer makers... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Some really good points about A B which I will address here. Since someone attacked my person for some mysterious reason, I am forced to explain that these tests were always done with a group of experienced audiophiles in Asia and in Europe. To th... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? I assume you meant prousb and not usb? Did you run bit perfect tests to ensure you were comparing apples to apples? It is encouraging to hear you got improvement and that it was pretty simple. Would you mind elaborating how you can intuitively fig... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Also reading the earlier confusion about fiber optic. My bad, I didn’t want to detail the system and I should have had. I receive streaming via fiber and also play audio from local drives. All this is irrelevant to my point. My reference to fiber ... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Hi kijanki, thank you for the clarification which I understand. My statement was a straw man assumption which I put forward for us to debate. It is “absolute” on purpose, like a math equation that we are trying to prove wrong. Sorry if I wasn’t cl... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Btw the designer of maybe the best steamer finally confirmed my straw man assumption. Turns out indeed it was correct. The signal is identical. No one can hear any difference.Of course I wouldn’t question that the person who was very offensive for... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? One designer of streamers confirmed that his effort is to reduce any emissions via air, cable and power. My “strawman” above addressed cable. I don’t know about air especially since fiber allows us to move the streamers or NUC as much as a kilomet... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Hi Welcher. My understanding is that Ethernet sends in packets but since it is still an electrical signal it is possible it would affect sound although a well designed interface is unlikely to. Usb connections are proven to make a difference good ... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? yyzsantabarbara from what I can tell this would be a good choice and a less expensive way to get bit perfect signals. If the dac is equiped for it the cost is minimal and one can run very long fiber optic cables. If the dac can’t I have read of pe... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Jdt1, why are a b tests becoming irrelevant? Any of us who have read o toole’s book consider his work to be seminal in helping understand real differences but is there something more recent that suggests a b tests if properly conducted include bia... |
