Help settle a streaming argument!

@polkalover 

Just because someone can't explain the reason in actual scientific terms, does not mean that the improvement in sound quality doesn't exist.

Audiophiles use their ears to evaluate whether a given component improves or degrades the sound quality, while polkalovers rely on measurements to tell them what they like.

Of course, you knew this when you asked the question.

Or maybe you actually do believe that the hundreds of thousands of audiophiles that buy expensive streamers or dacs are all fooling themselves and only you know the truth.

@drlou77 I wish I could tell you that there is no difference but it is and a lot, probably it was one of the biggest improvements with Innuos but before ordering one I will suggest you to test it in your system, fortunately there are great Innuos dealers that can work that with you. 

When I installed mine, I still was talking with the dealer 10 mins after he connected it, music was in the background and I could tell the improvement. 

I think maybe as you go up in the streamers ladder the difference is more subtle but with the Zenith MK3 it made a lot of difference in my system

One more, also a good cable made a big difference

My 2 cents 

Thanks and good luck

curiousjim- I don’t have an answer for you. I don’t have NAS and I'm just storing the ripped CD’s in the Innuos.

@cleeds Are you always so gruff?

Could you please point me to the post you referred to that gives the explanation?

thanks,

jerry

PS  I just bought a $13K streamer.
