High-resolution audio, now with added fibre

HI Chris, James,

Stumbled on AE's post on this, did you experiment with fibre yet? What would be your valued opinion? If this full electronic isolation indeed works wonders, would it do so for attached drives also (Andrew is only comparing it to his regular NAS)? Iow, would playing from a fibre connected NAS be better than playing attached drives? Ive always thought NAS and Attached drives to be of the same audio quality, but this could change the world?

As a corollary, if anyone is going to comment on this, would you please compare an attached USB HDD to a USB Flash drive, with respect to electrical noise?

Thanks in advance, Ken

EDIT: wow... ignore my comment; I stumbled across the thread here on that very topic. Yikes!
