And despite all the bitching and
moaning you hear about PC-based receivers, the real beauty of them is
that the software is constantly improving and each major software
upgrade is sort of like getting a new, better receiver. I find it
fascinating.


Is the modern DSP filtration getting good enough
to overcome the noise from the computer they're connected to?

In my case computer noise has not been a problem. When it is a
problem, the best thing to do would be to figure out where the noise
is coming from and attack it direclty. The way I look at it, DSP is
for kinds of noise that you can't simply get rid of. Ditto for the
ANC-4 phasing unit that I sometimes use. They're like a last line of
defense.
