Joe,

Well presented. Thanks.

I found it quite effective to apply convolution together with MSEB. However some vocals are happened to have distortion.

Try lowering the gain in the convolver stage

I set the volume at 0.0 . Further down will be - x.x . Which volume level should be optimal? Thanks!

With any DSP you run the risk of clipping if you don't give it some headroom. In the convolver settings reduce it down. A good starting point is -3db reduce more if needed. You will find some music will need far more than others.

Reduce it by a few dB (to negative if that's what that means) and test that part out to check that the distortion doesn't happen anymore. If reducing this by much doesn't do the trick, there may be another problem. The default btw is -4.5dB.

But right now the convolver also has a little bug affecting these files on AutoEQ that requires a workaround of adding a few blank samples in front of the file. I've done this for you:

Hi Joe, I have plugged in " Moondrop KXXS minimum phase 44100Hz.wav " and found it troublesome with the clicking noise so araised. Can you do me a workaround for this convolver ?
Many thanks.

Good evening. I bought an r5 player, the LED in the button does not light up on DSD files, and the led lights up in different colors on other music formats. Who has such a defect? Is there an rgb or rgbw led in the button ?

i wonder if 3.5mm output uses single dac or dual dac too? i know balanced but curious on the single out

I am getting mighty pissed off at Canada Post. All they continue to do is give me the run around. This is all I have for the last tracking update in August. The only tracking info is that from over 6 weeks ago. They admitted the item appears to be lost. I contacted Hiby, and all they say is I should just wait another month for the item to see if it arrives. This is total garbage. I won't be buying anything from China again.

Have you registered a dispute on Aliexpress? I did with my Urbanfun ISSO14. Two sets eventually made it to me...after 3 months in transit. Was refunded my money and ended up getting 2 sets for free. Also live in Canada and have had huge problems in the past with getting timely delivery from Canada Post. Best thing you can do, is register a dispute on Aliexpress to get your money back. Once you do, there's a good chance that your item will eventually arrive. Even if it doesn't...you still got your money back.

In the past 10 days, my R5 has twice shown the android on his back screen when powered on. I was able to get it running both times, but I’m wondering why this is happening and if it’s a sign of a failing unit.
