I just got a xin-feed recently, and it's my first experience with hardware crossfeed. I used foobar in the past, but my sound card isn't the best so
I didn't really feel that a good evaluation.
Overall, I'd say crossfeed is great! On some recordings it's very noticible and makes listening much easer. Older jazz albums especially. Personally I think it does make listening less fatiguing, and a bit more enjoyable. This is strange for me to say, because I never felt that I was having a problem before using it. Now that I've experienced the difference, It's nice.
as a side note, I busted out my old sony ex-70 (modded) to give them a listen. it was the first time since I picked up etys. Wow, when those were my headphones, I didn't know how good things could sound and I thought they were great, now, I can't stand them.
Once you hear the difference with something, it's hard to go back.
good luck
