Haha, well, I may well have done the most XDMS listening but I'm not the only one

There are certain Alpha testers whose opinions are also highly valued and, of course, Emile is also overseeing things. With every new XDMS build, there is a core team testing the functionality of which I am part. The critical listening on my part is not done for every single build, but certainly every handful of builds, and I ring the bell when I find that the sound has suddenly changed. The thing is, since my system's sound has recently changed quite a bit, I have to build up a new reference point. But as far as I can tell with my changed system, the delta between my other digital sources and the Extreme using XDMS remains unchanged.
