Well I am spending a lot of money today. Oh listening to Steely Dan. Not a big fan. It will take me weeks to pick my components. Just took a pic of my music cat. LOL Man to me over 50,000.00 is a lot of money. I'll save over 400.00 a month. I had to do it. That is a lot of money. I all ways freak on this day. It is not a good day for me. Let us keep this in prospective here. I am borrowing over 140,000.00 today.
Just put Dr. Hook and The Medicine Show. Super Hits. Some good jams. Here is the definition digital jitter. To me it is like you blinking.

Have so much to do. Who does music like Dr. Hook today? Thinking about this jitter. That is one of the reason I like separate components to do as little as possible. It is worth it even putting more cable in the loop. The benefits over come the diminishing parts of it. That is my thinking on the more components. I guess the question is would you pay over 500.00 for a tubed USB DAC? I would. Only if I thought it would improve the sound coming from the laptop. Been thinking of building a dedicated music tower. I am thinking an AMD quad core. I can over clock it a little and still not have to cool the processor. I can do 4 fans on my tower. Haven't picked a board yet. The memory I picked has jumped 40.00. Here is my cat. LOL
