I think the plugin changes the stream to 24-bit, don't know if the frequency changes too.
Update for me - My normal speakers are expensive Zu Definition 2s, wideband drivers supplemented at the very top and bottom with supertweeters and subwoofers. But most of the music is without crossovers, characterized by a huge, dynamic colorful presentation. The speakers that got me oriented toward the Definitions are still in the house - homebuilt single-driver, bass-reflex boxes per the "Big Fun Box" recipe on the TNT Audio website. The drivers are old hemp 8"ers from Omega. These normally live in my garage. In the right (small) room, with sufficient room reinforcement they sound great, miniatures of my big 'uns. The wideband signature is there in spades but they do not have nearly the refinement. And, a peaky presence band reveals they're not cut from the same, refined cloth. I've had these speakers in my big system for a bit and really, really wanted to set them up with Inguz, which apparently doesn't work with .cue files. I kept my 'backup' set with .cue and .wav files but for 'play' I sliced up to individual files with Foobar, updated to the SBS 7.5 daily, and spent about an hour doing measurements with Room EQ Wizard and some pink noise played back through the SB (as opposed to REW). Net result? Holy friggin' cow! I'm not one for hyperbole but these $200 speakers are utterly phenomenal once the frequency response is smoothed out. My neighbor knows my main system better than anyone but me, I have him over once a month or so for long, late listening sessions. He came over Friday afternoon for a couple hours and he was blown away. The similarities with the big rig are undeniable. Of course, I couldn't EQ below their natural dropoff at 50 hz and they don't have the same supertweeter sparkle as their 55x more-expensive bretheren but I dialed in a slightly boosted 50 - 200 hz range (better than flat to most ears)and bass is most satisfying with most music now where it was nearly absent before. It is beyond sad to me that this software appears to be on the road to deprecation and I'll soon have to start choosing between staying current with my software and keeping the Inguz plugin which I'll reiterate is THE MOST important plugin of all to this audiophile. It makes your system sound better. What other plugin (or source for that matter) can do that? Anyhoo, wanted to report in and bump the topic up again.
