If so, what are your speakers?

Most importantly, did you make changes to the configuration file, regarding SAM
and the bass tone point, etc?

Hi Miro,

Yes I am using SAM with my D400. SAM applied to my Wilson-Benesch ACT 1s

Only changes to Configuration was to change Tone button on Remote to SAM On/Off.

David,

Are you getting an improvement with SAM?

Yes there is a definite improvement in bass - not necessarily in quality of bass which, IMO was already good, but in how much deeper it goes. There is much better definition across the whole frequency range, and everything seems to snap more into focus. The ACT 1 is already a good loud-speaker, so the SAM effect is perhaps not as significant as in a smaller speaker - with the ACT 1 it is not a "road to Damascus" experience, but a more subtle change, albeit a worthwhile change.

While my speakers were away in Paris being SAM profiled, I used a pair of much smaller B&W CM1s, which already had a SAM profile, and the difference SAM made to them was much greater than with the much larger Wilson-Benesch.
