Buffer settings can matter, not just for clicks and pops only.

I was hearing it (improved imaging) before the buffer adjustment.

Again, I'm going under the assumption that I'm crazy.  I don't know if it could possibly be some change to windows 10 or updated Schiit drivers (I'm woefully ignorant here), but I doubt it.

Ugh, you read that completely different from how I wrote it. My bad...

I edited my post as well, for clarity.  I think the communication issue may have been on my end.

Nah, if one can misinterpret my written intention, it's my fault. That's my responsibility.

Yep, I was just about to come update my post.

I upped the buffer slightly, and all seems to be well.

Also, this is completely insane, but imaging seems improved.  Probably just me hyper-analyzing every sound I hear, but it's been consistent.

Glad to hear it worked. I have a Gungnir and it works fine with my laptop with Win 8.1. I am always wary when a new version of Windows comes out. I still remember Win Me. It haunts me.  :-0 Thank goodness I was able to go back to Win 98 SE.

Windows ME.  I stuck with it (for the whole year that it was out), but got the beta version of XP as soon as possible. 

Such a strange blip in the radar.  Almost as if it never happened (which is exactly what MS would prefer).

I never ever ever had Windows ME. That must go down in history as the worst version ever.

Thankfully I used Windows 2K and never had to deal with that piece of crap. Win98/SE was never my favorite, but it was still a hell of a lot better than the unholy nightmare that was ME.

2k was usable.  It had a few quirks to it, but I didn't mind.

I was working as a computer tech at the University I attended and that's what a lot of our machines were on.

This conversation is making me feel old.
