Latest Beta 6.2x
Keeps dramatic volume changes intact but limits the highest volume a little bit below the "red-line"
Brings out mids and highs over bass and lows, especially on systems with crossovers and dedicated speakers.
Makes loud music "louder" and helps low level music.
NOT MEANT FOR NIGHT TIME LISTENING.
Tested with all sorts of music, from classical to dance to rock to heavy metal to rap/hip-hop.
Tell me how you guys feel about this one!
I'll update it as time progresses
