moving away from itunes - looking for drag and drop playlists
There is a reason to use Windows: Foobar 2k. You could try wasapi plugin which uses Vista's new Windows Audio Session API. The difference to Direct Sound is noticable even on my alesis io2. Question is if its bloated or just more detailed. Maybe even becoming an alternative to ASIO? "If...- gattler

audiophile tweaks to improve computer sound??
Quote: i got the armorsuit p60 earlier this year.. with 5 fans, it's quite quiet Way too many fans ! Dampening wont help as much as anti vibrating fans and minimizing fans to max needed (CPU and PSU only). The Accelero on your graphics card is nice, same here! You might want to...- gattler
