But how do you do that ? Can you please give a sequence of actions ?
(and I assume this is Attended ?)

Yes ...

For those who already knew (offline), what I calculated so far was 3450 euro ex (if applicable) vat and shipping. However, this anticipated on an onboard Firewire connection which now is to be replaced with the "secret" never done before other connection. This is more expensive (in fact just additional), and although I know what the kind of maximum is, theories tell me that there is a low boundary of 350-450 euro. But :

At this moment I can't tell whether it really will make THE difference because it cannot be tested in NOS mode (read : I won't construct a first version of it, not knowing yet whether it can be used or not).

Hi Peter
This is a vital bit of info for new users who have not followed the history of XXHighend, as it avoids any possible damage to your speakers during this software development phase. Its never happened to me, but the warning needs higher profile than lost in this thread - perhaps in the Technical Workout section.
Happy new year, Chris

G'day Peter,

may I suggest an addition to the onboard volume control which may prevent shattered windows and bleeding ears. Within the settings area, would it be possible to set an explicit, user defined, upperlimit that the volume control cannot exceed, eg. -30dB. What this should then do is prevent the volume slider control from physically rising any further than that value.

Although I don't use the onboard volume control currently ( I use preamp for that ), I may well bypass the preamp in the future.

The thought of having full power going to my speakers because of a slip of a mouse wheel is too scary to contemplate

Cheers,

Russ

With a click on the "V" label above the Digital Volume slider now the volume will go up with one notch.
Note that the mousewheel can also be used to change the volume (after the slider has been clicked to make it the "active control").

  In addition I notice that occasionally between 2 tracks a very short moment of another track is played.

Yep, and as "promised" in the release notes . I have it myself once-twice per evening, but it seems kind of standard for the last track of the playlist.
 

The difference is the added distortion I hear riding on top of the music with the HDD compared to the SSD 

Btw. Gerard: see you have selected Prosessor Sch. 3. I am getting better sound with "No appointment" here instead of Schema 3. With Sch. 3 it sounds more "edgy" and I feel a unconscious need to gnash my teeth together...
