whatīs wrong with flutes?
in my system which pedal know quite well the , the sabre dac fed through I2S bus is the best so far
it equals the 5 tower dddac in all over AND bass slam
it surpasses it in resolution(not difficult)
with resolution and low noise-floor comes 3d and the rest by itself imo
so thereīs no problem following complex passages of massed instruments and voices e.g. G.F.Haendel Messiah( my desert island favourit)
and this is with the stock IVY buffer version and the std psuīs
(will at a later stage try to build a tube based buffer ala lampizator, but my tube psuīs tend to be big.......my riaa psu is 48kg for 4 x E810F!))
when it comes to XX I agree that close to perfect sounding versions are sometimes ruined in the persuit of tweaking of features
agree that som prior versions sounds as if they were tuned to a specific need/purpose(soundwise)
( maybe the treshold for releasing new (improved) versions should go through a beta panel before "final" release)
so e.g let 0.9w-9b stay as the official latest working version till the next level is quality-proven.
maybe remove versions older than ???? there is something called too many options (also on the different settings)
maybe there should be a working reference with fixed settings(at least some)
e.g 9b with 4/17/17/0/0
easier to move on fw. when the new (intermediate) reference is set.......no more turning back except for P to locate weird faults
then the beta users can communicate on a select and"closed" part of the forum in the pursuit of REAL PROGRESS
this would also save a lot of ranting in the forum time for Peter
ALL this is of course IMO
ANYWAY THXS 4 the effort Peter,but make it easier on yourself
best
Leif
