So ...

I have been able to find a tweak that makes XXHighEnd redundant. No influence is possible any more.
Of course because of it SQ improved vastly.

So I finally did it. But now what ?

In the early 70's I had an Eagle amp with built in graphic equaliser. With it I could change 'everything' about the sound. Within a few years I had a Meridian, it turned on, up & down, that's it. I could change nothing. It played 'flat'. XXHE is full of 'tone' controls & one day I would like it to be more like my old Meridian, on, up & down. Maybe there will be a default version at some point where coupled with a dog's bollocks PC there will be no more bloody tweaking! Peter.....?

Hi Alain,

It would be nice though...and it has to be possible...and it would be nice if it is Peter that finally achieves it?

I was just reading about a very fancy $50k dac with uber galvanic isolation at 38 linear regulators on-board and the guys that buy it are still playing with usb cables and different computers and software and transports.  Sigh...there has to be a better way.

Cheers,

Anthony

So ...

I have been able to find a tweak that makes XXHighEnd redundant. No influence is possible any more.
Of course because of it SQ improved vastly.

So I finally did it. But now what ?
