Hello all,
I am still trying to understand the 'digital' difference between:
A: Using iPod on a Wadia dock and feed the signal to a MF CLiC via coaxial
B: Using iPod connected directly to the CLiC via the white USB iPod cable
The sound between them is definitely different. Using Wadia dock sound livelier.
Taking the songs on the iPod are MP3 320kbps/48 kHz files:
1. Does the iPod cable sends digital signal to the DAC of the CLiC hence bypassing the iPod DAC itself?
2. What is the limit of bit per second that the iPod cable can handle?
3. Why would the sound be different if the DAC in CLiC is processing the files from both sources?
