For similar reason that difference CD transports can sound different into the same DAC, different computer components MAY affect a DAC. Also if ground planes are shared, this also can cause the output of a DAC to vary as RFI finds it's way from one device to the other - for this reason Naim recommend using an optical connection between a computer and their DAC.Īt the basic level, yes 010101010110 is easy to transmit to a DAC, but once you dig deeper it's a lot more involved. If there is extreme RFI within the computer, that can cause errors on the data line - the computer transmits 010101010110 but the DAC reads 010101010111 (though this is unlikely), with SPDIF type data there is no way to monitor / correct this. This is pretty easy for a DAC like the Chord QBD76 to correct as everything is read into a large buffer, then read out at the speed the DAC wishes. Variations in the power supply can cause the clock to be slightly incorrect. It just confirms 2 things i always have in my mind when reading anything about digital audio a suspicion that articles like that are sponsored by the companies that sell over priced cables that make 0% difference, and that the placebo effect is so profound, yet so undervalued, that i start to question the claims made by other 'experts' that might actually have some grounding in reality.Ĭlick to expand.Because the bits within the data signal isn't all that matters.Ī DAC requires the signal sent at exactly 44.1 samples per second, variance in the clock in the computer can cause the signals to be out of sync. But its a vicious circle, the more you try and reason with them the more they believe they cant hear a difference. It just bugs me when i see other forum member convincing others that they will benefit from forking out on expensive components that don't have anything remotely to do with audio quality. By hey, someone is cruising around LA in a Porche 911 because of how gullible people are. I don't frequent that forum very often any more, or other subforums, i just cringe and leave now when i see people claiming they can here differences between things like FLAC and WAV etc, different USB cables, expensive blank CD's etc. Some of the things i have seen people write in the AVforums HiFi subforum are just plain depressing. Yet so many people, so-called 'audiophile' hifi buff's actually believe this. TBH, what he wrote deserves a good kicking (drawing the line at personal attacks).
