Dave, At reading back your original post now, I indeed agree you expressed things rather similar to mine. I didn't read it like that the first time. So there must be some truth in it. early W versions were causing a hardening in my system. Only now I realize I have been suffering from the same. I must say that it didn't disturb me much before, but my wife started to complain ("isn't that too loud ?") and a visitor listening before and after the 30,30,0,0 made the remark afterwards that the other day (before the 30,30,0,0 was in) he didn't like it much. Right now indeed it is so that the upper limit for volume seems to have vanished. Pedal's remark too. So I guess we have something to focus on. Besides that (in fact more important I think) I could reason out in advance of doing it that it should work out for the better. Now just give us a year more ...  |

hello P
went doewn to 17 on both 2 and 3 and it cleaned up the midbass!
q1=4
q2=17
q3=17
q4=0
q5=0
and I think it sounds better with q1=4 q2=17 q3=17 q4=0 q5=0
treble is crisper and better integrated with upper midrange; 30 on 2 and 3 is over the top on midrange focus and a little more mellow,maybe a good match for a little forward sounding system
x2 got more 3d than 0.9w-9b
Hi Leif, My visitors I talked about (you know, Visitor A and Visitor B) at some stage made the remark that the piano (wing) was dry. It was an explicit remark. So I stuffed in the 4,30,30,0,0 which before that was at 4,0,0,0,0. Within 10 seconds their remark was "too much !" and "can it be down to one third of this ?". So I guess it really works ! I just now turned it down to 4,17,17,0,0 and at first glance this gives a better balance. 30,30 seems over the top indeed ... Thanks ! Peter |

I tried going down again (from the 30 30s) and tried to listen to 24 24 for awhile (invert and non-invert). Went down to 17 17 and stayed there for awhile (invert and non-invert). I am still on the last version: 9W-9b. I still like the fullness, soundstage, highs purity, lack of leaness, lack of digital sound/jitter? (finding this to be big) ... of 4 30 30 0 0 plus invert settings. Peter, did you let your guests get used to this setting? invert/non-invert? It is a big change (maybe threw them at first), and in some respects doesn't sound "audiophile"/typical stereo to me (I like more of a wall of sound, rather than pinpoint imaging; 4 30 30 0 0 moves more toward a wall of sound, still great imaging in my book, but...), but it does sound more live to me. I admit it may be my speakers which have the tweeters running flat out (all six) and that between the midbass & low-mids can sound lean (taken care of with 4 30 30 0 0 invert)...or maybe just my dac likes it?
But even going down to just 24 24 seemed to take away some magic focus/better phase, and melded realism the system exhibits at 30 30. Plus I really felt pulling it down brought some digititis back...this was one night of listening... things change, I'll listen again after changing to the X series, but it's hard to pull away from the great sound I FEEL I'm getting now.

Plus I really felt pulling it down brought some digititis back IMO this is true. Some sibilance in the highs as it occurred to me yesterday right after changing it (to 17,17). But the bass seemed to change for the better. Not sure ... Peter, did you let your guests get used to this setting? invert/non-invert? It is a big change (maybe threw them at first No, not really. We compared DACs, and did not get into "at what setting which DAC may sound best". And since I'm not done with these settings myself ...  |

Ok, some more testing, better at my place ATM: 4,30,30,17,17.
More fullness, not just etched "pictures".
Sounds natural, good bass etc.
Tested with Jennifer Warnes The Well album.

Hi I really have wanted to make sure I had a handle on 4 30 30 0 0 before trying Q4 q5 Just want to see if you made a good listen to Q4 Q5 @ 0 0 before playing with them at 17 17 ... I've got to move into X version soon, so I want to really know W9 @ 4 30 30 0 0 before jumping, (so know more experimenting for me just yet), but I'll be really looking forward to see what Q4Q5 do. |

All of these controls exibit a subtle difference,there's not "heaven or earth" differences when you operate the sliders...
Dont know if there's such a "universal truth" about these or if they may conclude to something different on each system tested, I have too little explained from Peter in detail WHAT THESE DO...easier to use them to implement any changes if we were told what they do. In DETAIL...

Didn't help much, P! They all interact is what I get out of that... LOL... Late now, will try some more ltr. What I got out of it was that Q4 makes Q2 influences even stronger (maybe good for me; maybe not... but I'm not ready to play with it), and Q5 looks like when you use it you could have one type of sound one moment and another type of sound another moment,,, without even changing its setting... and I'm definitely not ready for that nuthouse yet ... so for me... for a bit longer... Q4 Q5 stay at 0 0 . Of course [Peter]..."Also, a Q5 of 0 won't help, because the resonances are inherently there."[/Peter] I may be in the nuthouse already and not even know it. |
