No, the 11-step version would be your best choice. They are identical sonically, the 24-step version is only needed by those requiring very fine channel adjustments, usually in a 5.1-channel environment. For everyone else, the 11-step version is perfect, and more cost effective too. -- NewBuyer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NewBuyer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7862 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30705 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
