Given the crappy sounds I heard when I was a teenager, that is something
to be glad for. I can still hear the parts of an orchestra just as well.

that USB DAC's connected to PC's are notoriously noisy.
What rubbish, you are about 20 years behind the times with that
comment.
Pity about all the people reporting that very issue online right now
then.
Why do I not see this problem crop up very often (if at all) on
StereoNet after all these years?
What a bizarre statement that USB DACs are notoriously noisy :) I've
owned two and neither were the slightest bit noisy. These people
Clocky speaks of must buy absolute crap, I don't have any other
explanation for it.

The problem isn't the USB DAC, it's the ground noise. USB doesn't
provide much ground isolation, so the noise level you get depends on a
lot of things apart from how good your sound card is.

Fairy nuff, but not clear on where the sound card comes into it if
using USB?

Some simply use the name "soundcard" for internal, or external ADC-DAC audio
devices.


Are there sound cards now with USB out?

Plenty of USB (and firewire) in/out sound devices available. Have been for
very *many* years!


Like I said, I'm not clear on any of that :)
Also for clarification, what I'm using is an entirely external DAC.
PC - USB - DAC, then RCA cables to the amplifier.

Most devices are simply ADC and DAC in one box, otherwise exactly the same
as what you are using, *except* far better quality that what Clocky
obviously has!

You sure are. Many rich people have a very limited field of expertise, and
most are simply lucky to be in the right place at the right time with the
right friends, and little regard for anyone else. And once you can afford to
buy politicians, making more is easy.
Once you have $Billions, actually spending it becomes difficult, so wasting
time evaluating a measly $3k purchase is not worth the effort for them.
And whoever coined the phrase "you can't con a con-man" was completely

It is not even necessarily what she believes. It's possible she's simply
trying to further her own relatively short term business interests.

Bolt and Jones are certainly more bullshit artists than liars, if they
had any intelligence they would already know that they spout a load of
shit because they have a controversial agenda to promote and they do it
like all 'shock-jocks' do. Its' a ratings-dependent job, if you ain't
shocking enough, someone else will upstage you.

I cheered loudly when I heard that the stupid old fool Stan Zemanek had
died - from a brain tumor- which explains why he made such ridiculous
rants over his final years. Did Stan really believe all the
controversial CRAP he broadcast over his last years? Or was he just
BRAIN-DAMAGED from the tumor that killed him?
