you could do worse than follow the instructions in the link in my signature here is some feedback of the effect Just to confirm my initial impression. EDO 0.6 (option 999) + TT3.0 + SBGK's blog settings delivers much improved sound. Not only wonderfully balanced, but also with greater nuance in both vocals and instruments. More layered soundstage as well. Am listening to Janos Starker playing Bach cello suites, and have to say his cello never sounded as real as this before in my system. for me the best sound is via spdif using the above settings, the sound using EDO/USB is more hifi sounding ie detailed, but less musical ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SBGK's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=52003 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93310 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
