this one is too sharp for me maybe it will work ok on well recorded mellow stuff. Switched back to 3.56sse find it more enjoyable music is more liquid sounding for me anywaysbgk wrote:well, not that good.
found a setting which I'd assumed was the best, but was introducing a digital edge and added another instruction that's improved separation.
have uploaded 3.64 avx 128, which is very good, very live sound, what more do you want, sets a new standard for me.

Which although is not as accomplished as MQN in rendering detail, does provide a relaxing listen when you just wish to enjoy the tunes. In fact I'm using playpcmwin right now
Just my 2 cents. Don't shoot me.
To me it seems that some of the main contributors to feedback on this thread prefer a slightly forward and thinner sound... Just saying.
I think this may have something to do with music genre preferences and MQN system synergy.
I think more resolving solutions do better on less forward MQN versions.

I didn't experience this when I switched across to playpcmwin.
Both were outputting via my Yellowtec PUC2 lite (USB to AES/spdif) to my NOS TDA1541a DAC.
JC, I would also not consider my system bright.
It is however quite neutral and resolving.
mqn is lean because affinity is changed. (in my much earlier post, i called it strain. same thing)
restore mqn 3.56 to affinity to full. not lean. maybe a bit... that's what i do.
when you fix processes onto one core only, it strains the sound, seems as though more crispy/clean, actually bass is less.
glad someone has same experience as me, finally.

i made it to restore affinity of processes. only tested on my i7.
i run it everytime after mqn is started

Nobody picked up on this but it is a very good point. I like detail but want a nice dollop of warm mid range also.
But 2channel is possibly on the ball with regard to the preferences of some of the main contributors. Do people agree on that? Maybe a new thread for people to indicate their preferred presentation as it would at least set the context to comments on this little thread!

is this on your radar to change?
I think it needs addressing
I agree with you.Aleg wrote: Therefore I believe a software player should be neutral in sound balance, dynamic in character and as highly detailed as possible, and all adjustments to your personal preferences should be done in/with your system and not with the software.
