Re: PC Sound Quality affected by Background Programs

Optical connections are inferior in sound quality to electrical and very optical cable dependent. Generally, there is a degree of veiling although they can sound 'better' in that they hide some of the problems.

The inputs to my dacs are transformer isolated and it is not, I think, a question of noise. If two computers with diffrent audio paths, one internal and one external, show the same repeatable sonic trait with Zone Alarm on and off, then I attribute this to the program
