Now that I managed to create a new config file from scratch with the right SAM profile, I have to confess I am not noticing any sound difference.

Nevertheless, the Room EQ feature seems interesting and I'll investigate the possibility to use it. What would be the best software package you would recommend?

Distortion has disappeared when you use SAM and tone (bass / treble).

Just upgraded and listening. Sounds good and similar to before. It could be that the soundstage is a little denser and smoother. Bass is tight.

Are you really hearing a difference? I don’t hear any difference.

Not hearing a difference here. It sounds just as amazing as it did pre-update.
