That's right.. my test results exceeded yours by a long shot.

This would carry some weight if you hadn't yourself made a seemingly
endless stream of generalized pronouncements about "the live" or the
eg "4830" soundcard.. as if they exist only in single permutations.
You seldom mention the fact that your results may be misleading to the
untrained observer (who must surely constitute the large majority of
visitors to your site) because your tests may not represent current
drivers and hardware.  Nor do you make clear the possible
discrepensies that people may experience between your results and
their own experience.

Now that we (Trevor and myself) have identified a major difference in
"4830" audio quality.. how have you encorporated this important
information into your "4830" (sic) test page?

When are you going to correct the mistaken rumour you have spread that
the digital section of the live is inevitably worse than the analogue?

False.  My analogue results were performed at 44.1Khz.  I made this
quite clear when I posted the references, and the sample rate is
clearly indicated in the plots.

This is typical of the sort of error Krueger is prone to making.

What is this "obvious cause", Krueger?  Be specific.

Yet another baseless accusation.  Krueger likes to say things like
this, without ever producing any material evidence.  I have asked him
to produce evidence for at least one lie many times now.. but he seems
incapable of doing so.  On the other hand, he has been documented
lying many times on rec.audio.opinion.  He once even declared "I am a
liar".
