i noticed on another forum some guy that run the Jitterbug and regen through tests and the Jb actually made the sound worse!

more noise, more jitter... :basshead:  the regen actually faired much better and his listening opinion was the regen made a small improvement but nothing from the Jb. 

No surprises here either. Years ago I played with usb filters, galvanic isolators, ferrite clamps. All sounded worse. I can see regen or Wyrd helping in some cases but even then there's no guarantee the signal coming out will be better than the one going in.

Nice LS50 setups. They sound surprisingly good for near-field desktop configurations in my experience.
 
Re: USB isolators
 
A regular USB 3.0 hub solved all my USB DAC problems so I guess I'm happy with just that.

No you dont. its a powered speaker.

I would do some more research before dropping some bills on a speaker.

Wow super impressed at some peoples set up. Mine is just normal Mac with normal $50 speakers. I do have a projector next to it. But I guess that's not part of the computer part.

Gotta say, I'm really digging the juxtaposition of the $1000+ equipment on the $100 Rubbermaid folding table.
