Thanks again for your post, ddude003. So you think adding more taps hasn't been worth the trouble or it's worth the trouble but expectations should be managed about the degree of improvement? Joel

While I'm still hoping to get an answer to my question, really interesting article, dd003. Thanks for posting the link. Joel

Thanks Ofer. I should have said 131K in my post. I'm talking about creating a filter with well beyond that number, again, understanding that increasing the size places a greater load on the CPU. Joel

To follow-up on my earlier inquiry, what about increasing the number of taps employed by the filter beyond 65K? Some may feel this is unnecessary also placing an added burden on the CPU. Still, if I want to try this, is it possible and, if so, how would I do it? Thanks in advance. Joel

That's great, Bernt. I'm glad I asked. Thanks very much. Joel

ChatGPT indicates that the sample rate of the filter should not be converted by an external upsampler to maintain phase and whatever else might be affected. Still, it would be good to know what other options might be available to upsample the filter. Joel

I know it can, but I'm not sure whether it upsamples the existing filters or only saves the filters at their original bit and sample rates. I thought it only saved the filters as they are. Thanks for your quick reply. Joel

Further to the preceding message, I'm wondering if there's a way to upscale the filters for PCM and save them so they can be used with players other than HQPlayer. Would any upscaler that could save files work for that purpose or is there a special method for doing this? I'll be grateful for...

I've been given advice about placing my speakers at equal distances from the back wall to within a fraction of an inch. Presumably, the same would apply to placing speakers an equal distance from the listener, again each speaker matching to within a fraction of an inch. At the same time, as...

Thanks very much for your reply, Bernt. In fact, only today, I started taking measurements using your software. I can not only see the logic in keeping the measurements and digital room correction within the same digital framework so to speak, but your software makes taking the measurements...

I've taken measurements with REW, saving them as .mdat files. I now want to import them into Audiolense but see it will only import .measurement files. What can I do to use the .mdat files I have? Thanks to anyone who can offer a suggestion. Joel

Great news, Bernt, and I'm very grateful for your response. Joel

I have a new amplifier on the way which is a more powerful version of the amplifier I currently use. There are enhancements to the design but the essence of the design will remain as is. While I know the proof will be in the listening (and maybe the measuring) if nothing else in my system...

Thanks again, ddude003. Joel

Great feedback, ddude003. It appears the Fletcher-Munson curve is exactly what I was talking about. As I use Roon Rock, I can't add any plugins but at least I have a better idea of the issue I want to deal with. Thanks for helping me with that. Joel
