None taken, either. This, once again, shows how individual the systems are as we almost seem to have a mirror image in how things affect the sound. If anything, there may be slightly too much bass at the lower value---the LFD amp (which, btw, is a stellar unit), has never struggled with bass articulation. Mrs. rgro, who's a total bass fiend, even raised her eyebrows in question a few times when hearing a couple pieces, yesterday. I'm not going to re-tweak the sub down a notch, though, until I'm absolutely convinced that it's overdone across the board. As I've mentioned, throughout the TT tweaking, the bass has never been at issue for me. Meanwhile, I'm enjoying the much better articulated and smooth-as-silk highs! -- rgro Rg System information ------------------------ Main: PS Audio Quintet > Vortexbox > Touch (wired) via optical > Rega DAC > LFD LE IV Signature amp > VA Mozart Grands > REL Acoustics R305 sub.
