Music sounds a little bit stressed.

agree, 7.69 better

OMG, this has become a soggy, soft focus version. No more sense of music, just mood

Lol
I was thinking that this version would be awful ;)

What do you mean by that?

If you are using certain DACs,this is apparently not enough to keep KS going,but my old Music Streamer 2 ,which is known for KS trouble through JPLAY plays fine here with 7.68.

I have MS2+ in my system (never worked with MQn), so there is hope for my MS :)
Please, could you explain to me how to change device name to no-unicode characters?
Here's How it looks now in sound devices tab: "3-Music Streamer 2+""

MQn 7.67+7.68 uses unicode characters,I think all non working versions between 7.54 and 7.67 use non unicode.This I suppose is strict sbgk´s territory,nothing you can do about it.And I haven´t the faintest idea of how you possibly can change device name in Windows either,perhaps the more knowledgeable on this forum can support.So I´m afraid I can´t help you out on this one,but if my MS works ,then I guess you should in principle be able to run the latest KS versions.In listwdmksdeviceses.exe my MS appears as:
0-Speakers < Music Streamer II > [Windows WDM-KS]
In Windows sound tab:
Speakers
Music Streamer II
Default device
Driver:
Microsoft,driver version 6.3.9600.16490,date 12.12.13

Long shot anyone know how to modify the renasas usb3 driver so that usb drives are bootable like the std win 8 usb3 driver?

uploaded 7.70 24/96 avx2, most detailed analogue sounding version to date, probably too smooth for some.

7.69 and 7.70 working very well on the Hiface Dac (Xmos).
7.69 and 7.70 working very well on the Teac Dac for approximately 10 seconds. After those 10 seconds: noise (probably Teac buffer problems).

7.72 a little more sustain and definition on the strings

7.74 lifts another veil

I just come across this, interesting approach. I am wondering how it sounds.

Sounds ok with reclocking
