I did one more test to prove to myself this is all working as I understand it.

I was concerned that possibly in 24/96 MHR mode (which I shut off for some measurements) Meridian may have done some magic with the DSP Speaker (they don't).

So with the system configured normally (24/96 MHR) and running +3dB.

I ran my resolution tests (low level FLAC files) to verifiy what level I could hear again.

I ran my tool and shifted things from +3dB to -9dB (-12db that's 2 bits).

Then reran my resolution test and sure enough I lost 2bits. I went from 20bits to 18bits.

If you think listening to music is fun, try learning an instrument.
