Anyone try one of these? Thinking about using one in the office rig.
I love the final line in the Stereophile review:
"You can see from the "Measurements" sidebar that I could find no significant effect that the JitterBug had on the analog signals output by three of the DACs I had to hand. Yet with those DACs and others, I heard an improvement in sound quality that I can attribute only to the JitterBug. I hate when that happens!"

"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul!

Seems to me it's more geared at buss powered USB dac's.

Since the header only said 'Jitterbug", I didn't know there was a thread for the USB Nosie Filter. Thought it was for the Jitter bug dac.

I still haven't tried one although I think I need to. I can hear a big difference between the cd and flac running through the same dac. 50$ isnt much to just try it out and see if it works for me. Im still on the fence to try the REGENS or AQ.
