As you can see, IRQ isn't even as effective as SP1 RC upgrade.
Well IRQ is just a part of it! Marcin this is Release Candidate wich mean the final will be more(or less ) stable but nothing more as architecture! off: guys today I woke up with one idia: we need motherboard with I2S output! I need it ahaha and good drivers(no not good exeptional) for it than we can talk about OS's and IRQ.

There is some more regedit tweak : http://www.phasure.com/index.php?topic=1412.0 do all from Marcin's advise and try with IdleEnable value 3 ...but i doubt it to hear some change when you don't find it in W7/Vista. Undercock/undervolt the CPU is important too. Update DIOS drivers, ram is good to be on one stick not 2 or more. It's good to put the pc chassi on tree legs on the ground or in level rack and you can put the PSU out of the chassi to the ground too(well yours is fanless but you may still try it. Buy or DIY a good power cord! Change the fuses with old ceramic ones(in main power)! Unpluge the dvd, led's and you may try hdd in outcase not in the main chassi(f1 is a very good hdd but try ssd or little one for OS like 120gb or 80 for less power consumation and vibrations). Very good pc configuration overall fanless cpu cooler??? If not do it! If you can afford a lcd 14 inch touch displey you will get of from the mouse and keybord power consumation and big lcd or CRT monitor(I'm looking for some kind of wireless remote cotrol from my other laptop to navigate if someone can help)! Things like lower brightness and no dadicadet video cards are good to (p5q is without inboard so try to find some vga with 16 32mb ). The mobo is with decend capacitators Fujitsu RE 560uF try Mundorf if you want http://www.partsconnexion.com/capacitor_ele_mundorf_all.html Criss.

If you ask me not the HiFace is the problem...XLR is a profi standart not a HI-FI it's made for long feet cables with decent quality...BNC coax. you use in first place is much much better! I don't want to star another war but Class-A ...for the price you pay for it...two monoblock with tubes will make you regret for the late choice and stone TL? why? are you speleologic guy? There is only one material for TL, Horns, BL/Front loaded etc etc etc-WOOD! There is only one material for speakers-PAPER (with leather surrounds) no other place for nice or cute or interesting or whatever even if i want...that's like nature laws, it's a lemma ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemma_(mathematics) ). Think about it and try change the XLR cables first! Criss.

Flenco, no offense but yes OS is the second step in the audio (digital one) chain(ladder) and if you don't hear the differens Vista/W7 (and if you tweak is huge one for Vista) than you might need to change the other components in your audio system (or you're deaf...well it's more cheap :D ). Accoustic tread is require electricity chain is very important 2 so...start change the 'hardware' first than you''l get the required difference in OS Without bad feelings just really try to help.

Windows X, I like when people talk with some knowledge, skills and thoughts even if they are not so correct or complete. For a lot of thinks you are right but lets think together what is the most bigger benefit of the CD transport over PC?(I will be happy to writte them down) -my guess is...the POWER SUPPLY ofc. If you open hiend CD and the hiend PC (is there hiend PC?) you will get my point. For hi-end PSU you need Linear-tube, Massive amorphouse transform,(Modular Power Supply / Signal Stage) Kenotron Rectifier (Plasma Convertor) Solid Core Silver Internal Wiring Solid Core Silver Power Supply Cable ...and so on and so on Most Pc's use chines 300000W ..nice, no! :D Yes we can continue with a lot of other stuff, someone like weight, plane down (rake), electricity!(proper power conditioner(most hi-end got one or even more) so you can see all the people in this forum found and search new and new thinks about PC music every day and yes there is still a lot of work but...don't give up the PC. It's a powerfull transport and storege! Regards, and I(and the other I can say) respect your thoughts one or other way! Criss.

1. WAV copied manually to RAMdisk 2. FLAC copied manually to RAMdisk 3. WAV copied to RAMdisk via 'copy-to-xx folder' & 'do not start playback' 4. FLAC copied to RAMdisk via 'copy-to-xx folder' & 'do not start playback'
Hihihi...well who is crazy now. I told you Peter , WAV-BETTER SOUNDING THAN FLAC! I heard it on my FLASH! You can try it too. Marcin right now I'm trying Q!= -2 in special mode and 64 samples and it's really nice But I have some stability issue. Best Regards, Criss.

Hello Bill regards for started up Linux+Asla it's not an easy job for any age! Well I tried it 4 months ago and I must say that Foobar+ASIO on UNtweaked Win7 sounds better to me. And there is HUGE difference between Tweaky Vista and 'Basic' one. Plus RamDisc and SSD (I'm playing from 8gb Flash and it's ) Keep the experiments and try our little digital eden Regards, Criss.
