I'm getting a decrease as well. It's from the channel mixer though.

Another separate thing- does anyone experience distortion? I only hear it in certain parts of some songs, and then other songs are fine. |

The simply act of listening to this straight for a couple days and then switching it off makes you realize how seemingly flat music is without, and you question yourself; I used to listen to music flat like this all the time? Second; bad recordings will sound worse, the channel is divided and the clipping will become more noticeable. I have found electronic music in general improves tenfold, with recordings like Kraftwerk remastered blowing me away, almost as if it were made for this. Whereas some recordings, perhaps pre-EQ'd can sound stretched and distort in some areas, however this can easily be explained after looking at the peakmeter spectrum and seeing a peak max of 0.01 dB and higher. If you want to use this on a regular bases you'll have to get rid of your MP3s and go lossless. |
