Dan,

Nope... bought... best example is TD's Tangram.... you can here and feel the 
difference in sound..

AH-HA! this is what I wanted to know.. so now, how do I find out what the 
differences are?

I had one on my SY85, it made a slight improvment... I may check out one of 
the Aphex ones, they're supposed to be the best.

this is what I want... so, what do I need to do?

If I could figure what happened, I would like to try...

Im afraid to say I prefer vinyl to CD for the reason that to me, and this is 
my prefernce, it sounds better... I know it crackles and pops, but human 
ears can ignore this. where as they can really tell the difference between a 
CD and LP being played back.
