Wow, upgrading from V1.1.6 to V1.2.5 is big. This is what I am noticing:
1) Much bigger thicker warmer more aggressive sound compared to V1.1.6. V1.1.6 is thinner and more laid back in comparison.
2) V1.2.5 is more 3D in comparison. V1.1.6 was 2D in comparison but was very detailed and textured. Now the texture has come to life and there is a lot more going on.
3) Everything just sounds so much more forward and life sized with V1.2.5.
4) Volume is much louder with V1.2.5. I am listening at 165 on the third gain setting now compared to 185 with V1.1.6. It also is more powerful at lower listening levels allowing me to turn down the volume further without the sound falling apart. It feels like they upgraded the amp without any downside that I can hear.
I don't think I am going to miss V1.1.6. Long live V1.2.5!
