That's why you take readings in different positions. All you mention there is visible in the various plots available in REW and is more reliable than a human measurement system.

Wrong. I have DACs that show no sign of influence from their power supply, subjectively or measurably. Your example there quite probably due to the inherent limitation of single ended connections. If a component has a ground connection, and connected to the audio shield, as many SE...

Erm, I think you are suffering from a logical fallacy here. Its not a virtue of your dac to be sensitive to the power supply in your NAS. Your DAC isnt even powered by the NAS.

Agreed, but its really a non issue in well designed DACs. All easily measureable.

Precisely. Switching supplies/regulators at that. Ceral Killer, why did you like the above post when its more evidence to blow your argument to bits?

"YES, it's actually made a very noticeable difference. Defo sounds better." Clearly your DAC is negatively sensitive to stuff it shouldnt be, or of course you imagined the difference. No my cognition is fine, you are just squirming because you know if your observations are correct it indicates...

I hate to point this out, but it is YOU who is saying your dac gets screwed up by your Nas psu. Not me, you. It's your opinion, your comment, your problem.

Who is the sucker? I'm not the one who has paid money for a psu which; A. Does nothing beneficial, or if it does B. Proves his dac amp is significantly negatively affected by surrounding kit when it would not be if it were a good design. So did you imagine it, or is your dac crap? ;) So you...

Yes. The hypex modules are indeed properly tested and double insulated compliant and marked. Im happy to let others decide which one of us is ignorant about electronics, audio and the issues of bias and uncontrolled listening tests.

I know that you have said its performance is negatively affected by your Nas psu. That's not a good amp dac in that case is it? My system consists of 3 way fully active dsp speakers of my own design. Phase linear time aligned with Hypex amps. 4 B&W subs. Fed by a Motu 8a dac. Dsp xo and...

Simple . You didn't perform the comparison blind with short intervals in between. You refuse to recognise the issue of bias.

Well one obvious one, by your own admission the dac is seriously negatively affected by the nas power supply.

Open minded is fine, allowing it to fall out and roll around the floor is another.

In other words it's not an issue which in itself would affect dac audio quality.

No, you just didn't understand the point I was making.
