That's great to hear! I was beginning to think I was the only one. I think it sounds pretty good too. Unless you take some measurements from the listening position and adjusting errant frequencies due to peaks, I think the Inguz or something like a behringer feedback destroyer would do more than modding the Touch too much.. Or as you stated upgrade speakers, etc. My home theater has flattened frequencies this way (BFD) and the listening experience is much more balanced and enjoyable. My stereo setup that includes the SBT, is a floor above and although the components are superior, I find I may need some acoustic treatment or room eq to make it on the same level (as if my wife would go for that twice in one house..ha). Difference comparing a large family room with bare walls and hardwood floors, to a medium sized home theater, carpeted, acoustic panels, and a BFD is quite something. -- Munroe ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Munroe's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=52982 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91322 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
