How did you manage to broke Beyer headphones ? :no_mouth:

Yes. Acoustic engine surround is fixed. Very good in games.

I downgraded to 1.1. SBx is different but broken too. Left and righ surround are stereo. Rear surround are left and right surround. So back to 1.2 and HeSuVi.

Right now I'm using HeSuVi to get SBX working properly.

Thanks MLE for your GC7 review. I think you're the only one to point out broken SBX on this device. I recorded some samples to pinpoint what's going wrong. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-uPvHa8vNgJdEMlaZMP6rbbBTU0NerZH?usp=sharing (As usual, disable all sound processing to ear this...

Hello.   When your amp is off, you ear sound from headphones ? 

I don't have IEM but I guess that ZxR with very sensitive devices like Shure E5 is a mismatch. ZxR is designed toward high impedance, hard to drive headphones. Using DT880/250 with a Z, I don't have background noise at all and plenty of power.

You can ear noise from 124 dB SNR ?

I succed using my SBz under Linux Ubuntu. I have to use a modified kernel.

It works great, enougth power to drive them.

Don't forget to use "fixdigout" -> link

"the sum of the voltages of the 4 wires is constantly zero." V1+V2+V3+V4=0 So GND=(-L-R)/4 But what happens with a 3 wires cable ? GND becomes (-L-R)/3 ?

delete "database.fpl" from foobar directory. use "rescan media library".

I don't know for alac but... With dBpoweramp I can convert wav into flac and back to wav, the result is binary the same (fc.exe original.wav converted.wav).
