This is the problem here, with all the mud thrown and excitement at amirs grounding practice and SMPS argument etc .. well it's all a distraction, fact remains no proof of any benefit from buying uptone product(s) . ( edit , a schiit DAC's shows objective benefit but question still remains of audibility but personally I'm not that fussed by that avenue)Actually, we don't know what the LPS-1 does to the output of the system. It is all hypothesis that it fixes this and that. If someone has one and wants it measured, they should loan it to me.
At one of the audio shows a company that specializes in making after market power linear supplies told me that the LPS-1 is actually noisy as it switches banks and such. Would be interesting to instrument that and see if it is true.
Even if the LPS-1 did something here, it would just get us back to square one where this device does not measurably improve the analog output of the DAC.
It's lower common denominator arguments coming from elsewhere, they all avoid the real issue in favour of a egotistical smoke screen .
That's disappointing as all I wanted was some objective evidence this device did something positive in the way it's marketed.. I did actually want that as it would of given us a decent point to discuss.
I'm more than happy to offer anyone from uptone a free floor to present their evidence, evidence that counters the suggestion their regen products have marginal if any practical benefits.
I don't care if amir is wrong, I have no invested intrest here other than a fair exchange of evidence. If amir is wrong he will have to take it on the chin and suck it up.
So .......
