    I find it very finicky. sometimes I find taking out the battery and putting it back again also helps.

    Genelec 8330A Review (Studio Monitor)

    Comparing GLM on vs. GLM off, I think the difference is quite obvious. I don't listen loudly at all and the difference is obvious.

    Is your interest in HiFi declining during spring and summer? Vote.

    [US-CA] FS: Hosa ODL 312 Digital Audio Converter Interface SPDIF Optical to/from AES EBU

    Genelec 8330A Review (Studio Monitor)

    USB to AES/EBU: the solution?
