There's no need to be insulted. There are posters who've acknowledged here that their goal is to mock and humiliate. There's no reason to take those people seriously.

It's actually a lot cheaper and more convenient to do really good digital. Every bit as good. The master tapes are used to create the digital tracks after all. I'm talking about Ethernet renderer with really low jitter driven by good software: Linn Kinsky/Minimserver/BubbleUPnP, using good cabling. Those still trying to get the ultimate SQ from USB or a transport need not apply. Steve N. Empirical Audio
