Title: Win10 10586.36, XXHE 2.03a sounds great to me Post by: hbrew on December 31, 2015, 05:51:09 am I have read that this version (Win10 10586) doesn't sound good. With the settings I have it sounds very good - compared to XXHE 1.186a on Win 8 (with the Win7 shell); but this also sounded very good. Not dimensionless (as with plugged ears) as people have written.
The depth, dynamics, clarity and details I'm getting is great. The USB cable upgrade made a huge difference on highs that without it perhaps I would not hear the difference. I would like to hear the other versions that people have written about that sound better -- 10074 for example. I haven't partitioned a drive in years. Can I partition and not delete my current setup? I had problems installing Win10 ISO. Was it because I forgot to activate the Win7 Pro (which I have a disk for)? In the end I installed Win 8 from disk, upgraded to 8.1 then to Win 10 10586. Or can I buy a setup with the best WIN 10 version on a SSD (no noise)? Title: Re: Win10 10586.36, XXHE 2.03a sounds great to me Post by: PeterSt on December 31, 2015, 08:48:31 am Hi there,
Quote Or can I buy a setup with the best WIN 10 version on a SSD (no noise)? Assumed you did not read about it, or otherwise this seems a commercial activity (while I am not much commercial at all) : Very soon now Phasure has an SSD ready to ship with at this moment 4 OSes on it (1x W8 and 3x W10 Builds), each in "from disk" version and "from RAM" version (boots from RAM and the SSD can be removed from the system). So this is 8 OSes. Then there is a 9th on it, which is the most normal and again sounds different because "the most normal from disk". Lastly, we will provide "upgrades", hence downloadable (aready working !) OSes to add to the SSD. None of them is activated, so you need to provide the license(s) yourself. XXHighEnd on each of the OSes *is* activated. Price is 360 euros. Disk with Multi-RAM-boot available for purchase (http://www.phasure.com/index.php?topic=3364.0). If you want to participate, let me know soon (upcoming week I am going to buy all the SSDs).

XXHighEnd on each of the OSes *is* activated. Interested. Where would I get the various licenses for Win10. I have disks (and key codes) for Win 7 Pro and Win 8.0 Pro but upgraded to Win 10. Without Windows licenses these this may be pointless. Thanks.

Now use the (W7 etc.) key for that.
Or buy a license. One is enough. Maybe investigate how one upgrades to W10 - what's legal and what is not. It has been spelled out in this forum quite some times as well, but don't ask me where because it was dealt with too many times. Maybe Search brings you to some ? Anyway, assumed that you use W10 now legally in your Audio PC, you will be legal with this SSD just the same, in the same PC. Ok ? Peter |
