Martyn, I have just seen this and not gone to hear them - but my
understanding is the SD machines have 24 bit convertors - so are these
dithered or not?  I think the only fair test would be with everything
the same but use a 16 bit convertor, which the SD's don't have - this
is a dithered version of the 24 bit A/D, so not really the comparison
they seek, is it?
