Assuming that was a reference to my comment, I should point out that I didn't say louder in your head, I said essentially that listeners often report a preference for audio, in comparisons, where one track is played at an even slightly higher volume. And it is not just me saying that, there are refereed studies published in reputable academic journals that report these findings. But wait, I forgot you don't believe in science, engineering, the scientific method, hypothesis testing, etc. I do because I both believe in the approach and I make a good living with those tools. But lately you seem to have regressed from your original persona as a sometimes amusing, high quality troll (as I've previously noted) into a curse-word-spewing 8th grader (different thread). But it doesn't matter as these are public forums and all are welcome. And I think Guidof, always the gentleman, has summarized things for the OP very well just above. -- garym *Location 1:* VB Appliance 6TB (1.10) > LMS 7.7.1 > Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Location 2:* VB Appliance 3TB (2.0) > LMS 7.7.1 > Touch > Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Office:* Win7(64) > LMS 7.7.1 > SqueezePlay Retired: SB3, Duet Receiver Controllers: iPhone (iPeng), iPad (iPengHD & SqueezePad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.7 on Win7(64) laptop Ripping (FLAC) - dbpoweramp, Additional Tagging - mp3tag ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92801 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
