Actually, as I mentioned in a prior post, I too found the bass somewhat
heavy upon first trying both TT3.0 and your settings. However, in my
system all I had to do was to back down a bit on my sub's volume (the
crossover is already at its minimum of 30Hz) and everything was fine.

The question then becomes: Is the heavier bass an artifact of the
priority settings (or buffer size) or is it a function of a system with
a tendency to enhance bass? Of course, in practical terms all that
matters is that one finds a balance that seems right.
