Thank you for the advice. Well, very strange in a good way. I've tried wav files again and I am astounded. The sound quality has transformed, and is really good. I had the touch volume at 100% before, so its not that. I'm guessing its a run-in thing.
Anyway, the sound quality of wav files are really good. Amazingly good. I've been fretting about affording a new dac, bu i'm now thinking that if i do the output caps mod and do the software mods i shall have absolutely no need, specially when John Swenson is saying that with these mods (i'm not brave enough to disengage the screen yet) it is an extremely good dac. I shall do the mods shortly and repeat Meanwhile the analogue out is really good, almost up with my Newtonia Optia CD player, a rare but wonderful high end machine. I'm getting width and depth to the sound stage, really sharp imaging and placement of instruments, tonality, musicality and PRAT. The bass is deep, not bloated at all, tuneful and tonally very goo, treble is very very good, and maybe there is a bit of a lack of power to the lower midrange, but that may be my system. The last bit of richness and dynamic power isnt quite there, but hey, I have been too busy listening to care tonight. If the mods are as good as they say, i'm in for a treat. This is an extremely good dac. -- gilbodavid ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gilbodavid's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=45159 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87168 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
