OK, but have you confirmed that the AUDIO setting on both the LMS on your PC and the "tinyLMS" on the Touch are both set to OFF with regard to use of ReplayGain values. That could be one thing that trips you up on comparisons. Regarding tweaks, there are tweaks for the TOUCH (see TT3.0 and Triode's EDO). But both of these relate to the TOUCH and *shouldn't* be specific to using the TOUCH with connected HD vs connecting to another PC running LMS. Some people think these tweaks add to sound quality and some don't. But easy enough to test for yourself as they are software based and easily removed. If it were me, I'd start with the EDO. You install this as an applet from the TOUCH itself.
