I definitely close my eyes when alone or listening critically. It allows you to "see" the soundstage.

no Lava Lamp but do have the candles + Pink Floyd and yes listen to music in the dark

Is there a reason why you expect one digital input to be superior to another? Whether toslink or coaxial it should all be a pure bitstream of data from the transport (44 khz, 16bit for standard CD).

Dan

Dan

It is great to have dedicated forum for Conrad Johnson instead of being small part of larger general audio forum

Dan

I've not heard anything specific either, beyond Ed retiring and them updating/reconfiguring the pwr amps a bit. ...since the preamp line is fairly new overall, I'd expected things to remain the same there for awhile....but ya never know and i have zero inside info. If I'm not mistaken, ET5 is the ...
