Hey Bill,
I still stand by that statement. Compared to disk, for me computer is the better source, and FWIW the hardware has remained pretty much the same once I ditched the via based system. Still have the same awful pci dac :)
Though I do find myself pondering a better dac some days. That said I think I can put that money toward other parts of the system and get a bigger return.
Speakers for one is an area of improvement.
Sure, I converted. If you remember I did TRY the recipe basically to debunk it and since I had much better results that way I jumped in. I recall making the os changes and listening and the amazement I had at what happened to the sound, and how real and 3d the images had become.
I am guessing that you never tried it but just dismissed it based on your computer experience. FWIW its the ones who never tried it that have the issues with cics approach. I hope I am wrong and you tried it, but I certainly dont remember a post to that effect. maybe I missed it??
