I'll be interested to see how your new measurements go. It is louder though, so I am having to turn the volume down more but have three options of doing this (which I can play about with and compare when I have more time) which are via the minidsp, via the SBT and/or the volume controls on my 4 monobloc amps.

My attention is being drawn more to to the music itself than the sound of the kit, which I always think is a good sign. In fact the bottom end sounds tighter and easier to follow and there appears to be an increase in detail generally but still maintaining a sense of ease to the sound. However, direct digital from the SBT to the Minidsp is sounding excellent to my ears with no glaring faults. It's hard to do a proper comparison with the analogue input fed from my Audio Synthesis Dac as I'm having to go from the coaxial of the SBT to the Audio Synthesis. I've also linked my SBT up this morning direct from its toslink to the minidsp. The act of going through one less digital to analogue conversion may very well change the measured frequency response. It costs you nothing to check it again, except some of your time. Well, I for one will not criticize you for doing the measurements again, Andrew. īefore anyone says it, yes i know it will not amke any difference but sadly that is not going to stop me doing it anyway. Gizza sad to say how this has changed me but now having got the direct digital to work I want to do another measurement session just for the digital.
