The "too bright" sound won't be an issue with your current soundcard - the fact that it is resampling 48-44.1 won't make that much difference in this context. You may want to aim for a curve that rolls off gently above 15kHz or so - most long-term users of DRC prefer a gently rolled-off top end response to a flat one... Alternatively, if possible tell the DRC to ignore high frequencies. I don't know if the Inguz s/w supports this? -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal... ...SB3+TACT+Altmann+MF DACXV3/Linn tri-amped Aktiv 5.1 system and some very expensive cables ;o) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phil Leigh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=85 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36716 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
