My comment was not addressed at you SM. As I said in my reply I have found the problem and know how to solve it (I think!). I have a new PC and this built in sound card is proving to be a pain in the bottom in other respects too. Tensons giving me a hand as he is familiar with the cool edit pro software and I am not. Once that is sorted then I will post some true plots and welcome advice.

Greg - I said nothing about having "nailed" psychology or buddhism. In fact I dont think I mentioned buddhism at all so your comments seem slightly bizarre. There is no complex mind game required - I am simply not wound up by events on hifi forums and it amuses me when people attempt these rather clumsy windups so I string them along a bit if I am in the right mood. It requires no great skill as in forums people largely rely on their imagination of others as you are doing now. I plead guilty to irony and it astounds me how it goes unnoticed as I am hardly being subtle. I suspect my approach just doesnt come accross on forums. Now pretty please with a cherry on - lets get back on topic.
