Gents,
I asked this question purely out of curiosity. My intent wasn't to start any kind of useless arguments or childish questions.
I had gotten into a discussion with a compu-phile who was adamant about the difference. I thought that bits were bits and bit perfect would be perfect? Since I currently don't subscribe to geek audio I thought to ask the question.
Of all the tweeks mentioned #'s 2&3 made the most improvement to sound quality on standard commercial CD's, DVD's and Bluray discs. #'s 1&4 not so much.
I have been wanting to come over to the disc-less side for some time, but to date haven't heard a computer system that rivals my transport.
audioengn and Mapman thanks for the replies.
audioengn I think I will try your suggestion.
Any others do a comparison?
