For those who are comfortable with linux and writing command-line instructions, brutefir / brutefirDRC works with 7.5.x server and 7.5/7.6 SBTouch. What is lacking compared to brutefirDRC on older SB is the ability to select filters via the remote.
I have brutefir room correction running on SBTouch, streaming flac or pcm at various sample rates and on a 2-yr old 2-core server (3GHz), brutefir only consumes 2% per channel for 44.1kHz audio, 4% per channel on 96kHz audio. I understand fir correction on Windows is heavier on the CPU. I have not heard a system with Inguz, but the measurement and correction are similar, so when working to spec, I expect brutefir and Inguz to give similar results. Some posts compared DEQ2496 v Inguz. I can say from my experience that Behringer digital EQ is way inferior to brutefir for room correction. It veils the sound, and dialing in eq is just guesswork. I have some bad room modes due to hard flooring, walls and ceiling, and digital room correction was always needed. Going just the passive room treatment route would have made part of my listening area (main hall in the home) look a mess. -- mervin_b ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mervin_b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42376 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77084 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
