| so bass traps in corners do nothing, it seems we have been fooled. or are being fooled. I watched a number of his videos, then realized there were no constructive tips, just criticisms, and everything we do is fruitless and won't work. After a few cycles of this, I chuckled, and gave up. | |

| Youtube audiophile hi res sounds MUCH better than my Eversolo streamer Thanks for sharing the clips. Agreed they sound great. I'm curious if anyone will track down some info on these. I'm wondering if they were simply transcoded from some lossless format, or EQ'd with some DSP along the way.. | |
