Camilla SQ

[michaelagiles]

i kinda wanna revive this thread

things i noticed so far:

1. process priority should be increased like the tweaks for mpd, it helped with the "nasty" overall sound (its not that bad but certainly noticable) i didnt found a way yet to make this permanently, unfortualy i dont have much linux skills

also increasing chunksize helped with sq, tho i found that as soon you increase priority you get pretty much the same effect

2. making a dither filter in the end of the chain helped

3. i noticed that inverting the phase on the start of the chain isnt a good idea, its better todo it at the end (right before dither), i have to revert the phase for both channels because apparaently early topping d10 models have inverted phase

4. rate_adjust should be enabled (i set it to 1second instead of 10)

5. watch out with filters, they have an effect on phase, try to keep it as little as possible (you can check with the graphs)

i think those are the things i discovered so far that did the most

Thanks Ghoostknight! I will try these when I get a chance. Bigger fish to fry at the moment! A lightning strike took out a power supply, a power amp and fried 2 mid/tweeters! Youch!
