Don't be afraid I won't do it, if you only imagine that the 8 channel version has been developed for one person only also and it really took a very large deal of the development time (still not finished, and he will have to wait some longer too). But, I seriously think there will be quite some people wanting it, if you only know what it can bring for sound quality (see previous post ... I'm fairly sure). I've tried it, not with a SOTA dac, and the improvement is huge especially in the transparency department. There's no way back to passive XOs for me.

I’ve mentioned before that the Pass has a slew rate of 30 volts/microsecond – in Nelson Pass’s own words: “... which is about 30 times faster than the fastest signal you will ever see, and about 100 times faster than what you will be listening to.”
So how ‘fast’ is fast enough?
Mani. I know Nelson's quote (it's also in a book that i have), but I think much more is needed, something like 1v/us per Watt. And especially one thing: current slew rate, not voltage slew rate. One day i'll find a mean to measure it

Is that allowed for an Italien ? When Spain was playing vs Germany everyone here was cheering for Spain. Yesterday here was silence. We watched (in HD) the first 5 (to see the players) and the last 15 mins (to see who won). All silence from neighbors and ppl in streets and bars. That's all we are in to soccer

Here's another example : Faith from George Michael. I mention this one, because it occurred to me that it wouldn't work as I wanted before. You could also say that I didn't get the feelings with it, I recalled from when being a tad younger, women involved. It was too sterile and had no slam. It didn't have the power the tough guy on the cover expresses, no matter how gay he is.
In short George Michael is not Boy George

Fresh install in separated folder. data TemporaryData are not created. After manually adding those, the "!CurrentlyPlaying.PLXX" and "!Played.PLXX" are being created in the data folder. Note that logging was off. Thought it was fixed with z-1 That's all for now.

Well, yesterday i finally tried the latest version on my music pc, where i was using the "stable" version which is y9.
z-2 stopped several times when playing in the middle of a track. Note that i didnt try previous Z versions there. Other times crashed.
Unfortunately I didnt have the logs enabled, so cant send em. Will try again on sunday or monday with logs.
