I'm using a super slimmed version of Windows XP. I toggle between Foobar and JRiver.
Hi i knew there were the trick.
I am stuck to win 7 but i have a plan to try to slim it down soon.
Instead i had a very good impression with 8.1 with Bing.
Very very musical from what i heard ...

Further comments on the Regen. It sounds very good with the stock Power supply. But I am an inveterate tweaker. I had the spare supplies so I tried them. If you read the info on Regen in Computer Audiophile you will notice the design has evolved. Firstly it is the brainchild of superstar John Swenson. He noticed some important sonic effects of using upstream USB cables with additional resistance in the ground wire. Uptone (the manufacturer) won't say exactly how much but I tried inserting a 3.3 ohm resistor into the ground wire of a throwaway USB cable. The results were spectacular. No need to do this on any new Regens ordered, all will have the necessary resistance. Bottom line if you use USB get the Regen.
Another point, all stuff upstream of the Regen is still important. Everything matters.
Hi and thanks a lot again. Very very interesting and helpful.
I have some tests ahead to see if i can avoid another buy.
But in case this device is very high in the most wanted list.
Thanks again.
Kind regards,
