RE: memory timings

I must confess I´m really happy with my cMP2 rig now

As American technicians say, "If it ain't broke . . . "

and playing around with RAM timings without knowing what could happen

If you go too far, your system will not boot up - it will fail the POST. Once you boot up, the chances of a "data stream" generating new sounds seems pretty slim.

After all, Bits-IS-mostly-bits, it's just that when converting from a computer's Digital to the real world's Analogue, the concept is no longer entirely adequate. Electrical activity associated with operating RAM might very slightly affect the (real-time) transfer of data to a DAC by perceptibly modulating the PS.

That doesn't mean it definitely does but, at least as I see it, that's the theory. Why (some) programmers and others find that so hard to grasp baffles me given how jolly clever they are.

(mind, I do connect my 2000 watt poweramps directly from the soundcard.....)

I hope you don't design medical electronics for a living. What on earth do you need 2KW amps for?
