I think if USB really needed fixing *and* was important to us here, I would have heard it through this forum or by email.

At least I'd like to think that XXHighEnd contains quite some options to avoid issues in this area.

Fix the strange sound coming from W8. Now *that* would be an idea ...

The only way I've heard XXHE on Win8 is through USB, so I thought in case something in the Win8 USB driver was responsible for the change in the sound of Win8 vs. Win7....

It could have. But what Gordon is talking about is something else.

Anyway, all looks mighty good to me regarding this aspect (seen through the NOS1 driver).

PS: USB on the Mac (current OS/X). Now *that* is wrong and theoretically much audible. Ask him.

To paraphrase a wise man: "All looks mighty good to me regarding this aspect (seen through the A+ driver)." :innocent:
