  1. Thank you. More interesting reading ahead!
  2. Is it possible to get an RSS feed that just shows the first post in unread threads, rather than all unread posts?
  3. Thanks for the heads up. Found the feed now!
  4. Does the new forum format support an RSS feed? Haven't been getting anything of late...
  5. I seen it written that the Analog-Digital converters in many hearing aids are easily overloaded at the input side. One way to avoid this is to turn the music down, and turn the hearing aids up.
  6. This has been very informative for me, at the beginning of a no doubt long and arduous journey! Thank you bluesman, derekc and others....
  7. I agree that many are misled by the different scales used in audiology vs audio. Setting up a PEQ to compensate for the dB loss shown on an audiometry report yields horrible results. WAY too much treble. My "distortion" happens with real-world sounds, not just recorded or amplified music. Hard to describe. Very shrill, maybe MP3-ish or ringing. Going to see my GP with the results of latest hearing test and increased tinnitus. No doubt next stop will be an ENT guy...
  8. Thanks for that. I have used JRiver in the past, but have now been seduced by Roon. Did you play much with JRriver's built-in DSP stuff? I did set up PEQs and got some interesting results, which I'm sure could have got me to where I need to be. Why did you feel the need to use Acon Equalize? As I understand it, I can use HQ Player with Roon to stream to end-points on my network, and HQ Player is somehow able to implement EQ. But I've not got to the bottom of that yet! Another thing I need to get to the bottom of is that some frequencies in my left ear (like loud female voices at the cinema, or loud whistling) sound sort of distorted, metallic or shrill. Maybe something to do with my worsening tinnitus. Oh Joy!
  9. Old thread, but hopefully you're still watching, derekc. Can you please expand on what you mean by a studio PEQ? Are you talking hardware or software? What brand etc?
  10. If you follow the link I posted, you should be presented with all available firmware versions without downloading anything. You do this by option-clicking on the version number field when in Airport Utility. I know I was running 7.6 with no problems (although not sure what version of the Airport Express that applied to.
  11. I would strongly suggest you try downgrading the firmware. There's no harm in trying - you can always upgrade it again.
  12. Try downgrading the firmware. How to downgrade your AirPort device's firmware | Macworld explains how. I had a similar problem, and downgrading to 7.6 fixed it. Known problem. What are you using to stream to the AE?
  13. Do you only have problems during peak periods, like during the evening? I have this problem using a cable connection with Optus in Australia. Tidal have said they have implemented changes but it's still hit and miss. Often one album will repeatedly play fine and another has repeated problems. It's very frustrating! if I use a VPN (in my case Cloak), even if it has an endpoint in Australia, the problems always disappear. It's definitely a problem between Tidal and Optus.
