Very good points discussed here. I too prefer the 7.1.3. I have an Aurender X100 as well and dont experience the harshness in the highs others have reported. I tought I was sensible to harsh highs but maybe my ears are tricking me here, being less sensible than before, very possible. Also, yes, I tought the sound was a little bit dull with 7.1.1 so the perceived increase in dynamics (as others reported) too is welcome for me. To be honest, the variable we dont control is each ones ears and taste in sound. To each his own, the important thing being if you like it or not and for that, you are the only judge....
