...

My listening tests showed that the 64-bit floating-point versions:
- Had deeper bass
- Had better clarity
- Had better 3D imaging
- Had more impact
- Were more emotionally involving and fun to listen to

Greenman,
You're making claims about what you hear and asking JRiver to make a change in our math.

This type of discussion can be infinitely long, and we have finite time available.  I suggest you post your opinions on computeraudiophile.com and hydrogenaud.io if you want to bring them more attention.

Closing this thread now.
