Having studied the code in this vol100 mod, it is obvious that all that is happening is that the calculated value (65536 when vol=max) is being hardcoded to 65536. The computer is doing EXACTLY the same amount of work in both cases and the volume is exactly the same - to eliminate ANY doubt about this, consider HDCD or DTS via s/pdif...
all discussion of crossfade, RG etc makes no difference - the mod doesn't alter any of that, it just replaces a variable with a fixed integer value at a certain point in the code. The work to calc the variable is still undertaken... There is only one conceivable way this mod could produce an audible difference - and that is if volume was not = 100 to begin with. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
