Hey Eugene,

Why is 1 khz spiked so much higher in most of the tests?

The output sound is great though, you did what a major company like Creative could not do.

I for one have no money to send you

- and I beg, borrow and steal to get any internet access in the first place.

Please, I beg anyone who has a few bucks, think about what Eugene saved you and me both. I intend to send a contribution, but my talk is cheap - only time will tell but if you have the funds I guarantee Eugene will find a use for it. We certainly know he's smart enough to use it for good!

Eugene, for your work, God bless you man, and if you're athiest then Science bless you man

Well, with a name like DriverHeaven, God bless you man

I did some internal loopback tests some time ago too btw... it gave a better result then the refrence waves :-p

thank you, Joey, for your posting!
btw, 'Gods on the DriverHeaven' -- nice metaphor

>> Why is 1 khz spiked so much higher in most of the tests

this is a part of the testing sequence (note the 'reference' graphs)

>> images

fixed

>> internal loopback tests some time ago too btw... it gave a better result then the refrence waves

this is a problem of RMAA algorithm -- if any results are better than 'reference', they are not necessarily 'better'
