RE: Sound Quality Changes caused by Sata cables.

"Compliance is not equal to sound quality."

There is no "cheating" involved with spread spectrum. The goal was to prevent TV interference, or interference to other narrow band signals because of the use of obsolete receiver technology. It's only "cheating" from the audio perspective if one expects that the solution to the TV problem somehow carries over to the audio case. This makes no sense, because the TV receiver and audio system are different devices with different characteristics.

I deal with the SATA problem on my system by not using SATA to transfer any files while listening to music. All the SATA action happens before playback begins, while the files are read off of disk, decoded from FLAC to WAV if necessary, and stored on a RAM disk.
