Transfer by Chris Shepherd (chris@eugenehifi.com)Transfer Notes:
- Transfer was done using the playback output of the SD 722 for a real-time digital audio transfer.
- SD 722 passed signal to the sound card for 1 hour prior to the digital audio transfer, allowing the SD 722 and sound card to “warm up”.
- Desktop PC, SD 722 and Quantum Symphony Pro (EMI/RFI Stabilizer) were isolated from vibration with Vibrapod feet.
- Desktop PC, SD 722 and Quantum Symphony Pro (EMI/RFI Stabilizer) were plugged into an FIM Energy Center (spiked for vibration isolation) for optimum A/C mains distribution.
- FIM Energy Center used a Van den Hul “Mainsstream Hybrid” A/C power cord.
- Desktop PC used a Gutwire “B-12″ A/C power cord with FIM terminations.
