Hmm. Well, again, there is nothing special about track transitions as

Yes, but what about the time response.
Getting a ruler flat Freq Response is only part of the picture and
often does weird things to the time response, i.e. transient response
on percussion, etc. Proceed with caution and trust your ears much more
than any sound level meter information.

You are of course right, if Mats perceives a difference, he does infact
perceive a difference.
But the title of the thread is Design miss in SB3 digital output?, so
there is a claim that others should also be able to hear the difference,
and that it might even be a result of some technical

I Also think Streaming Flac as WaVe sounds better than Stream FLAC
as FLAC.
And i think Wired connection sounds better than Wireless

Let me start by saying that I am new to the forums here. I have found
lots of very helpful people post to these forums in all categories, and
have made my purchase of two SB3 much more pleasant and easy to deal
with. And thanks to all of you.
There is one thing that disturbs me though, and that

Well yes, there are other issues as well. I'm not suggesting adding a
complete room correction suite like Inguz or Acourate though - that
would be a tremendous undertaking.
Every room has anomalies. EQ can shave humps (port frequencies or room
nodes for example) or to some degree fill in

I was just wondering if anybody had a view on the relative sound

and the Volume controls adjust digital volume settings, when it is

Any feedback is much appreciated

I have been offered one for about 1/10 of the original asking price ($

Seems valid for recent popular releases, but I'd be pretty embarrassed
to own any of the titles
From what I understand they only tested for codecs using some sort of
data reducing compressions such as MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MP3 and DTS.
I would think that it could then apply for MP3 and other formats with
data redcuing compressions but not for lossless formats and certainly
not for WAV.

Alwyn,
I have a Krell KAV-300i and it can sound cold with the wrong set up.
You just need the right speakers, and then the right liveness in the
room. I have found my room needs to be quite dead (a lot of damping
material to stop first reflections) to tame the treble area.
Otherwise the
Alwin,
What kind of floor do you have in your listening room?
If your floor is made of wood, i would highly recommend buying damping
feets for your speakers from this company

It's a very cheap tweak, but can lift your equipment very much.
The damping feets
Do you think that a room correcting device would make sense in that
case?
Like the Behringer or the TacT 2.2

If i where you i would diffently check out Sonus faber speakers .
the also work very good with krell amps.
Based apone what you are writing it really dossent sound like you like
