What would you trust to make sure your music gets from point to point without issues, a CD player with a 1mb cache, or a PC such as mine with 8 gigabytes of memory, not inclusive of HDD Buffers and Soundcard ones?

You're already taking the sound from a digital source, you're making sure with modern systems that it's getting from point A to point B without any damage of that digital data, data or timing wise. Computers do it so much better if you ask me.

Distortion is never a desired characteristic of digital systems.  I'm assuming that you aren't using vinyl laugh.gif

i don't think you pay much attention to your power supply that the computer power supply is one of the worst as it inject noise to the mobo and soundcard.

i used to get click sounds when i move my mouse, so funny yeh. Fixed that by changing to another power supply, the new one gave me another problem, noise when the CD ROM is spinning, hahahaha

Hi Vincent,

U need to go deeper into what Empy has to say. I totally dont deny the fact digital is the future, just that how cloce is that corner.

Somehow more parts arrive.

pls enlighten me, is CD not digital ? Why say the future is digital when we are using digital now?

does your speaker run on digital if you say digital is the future?

i'm questioning the use of a PC as the source than a dedicated CD Player.

i'm NOT questioning CD vs rip/loseless here.
