If you’re having issues with Windom loading or sounding to your satisfaction try the new download version on the website. I found it last night. Totally different way and separated by windows and Mac download versions.
I did the Mac download last night following instructions on the pdf included and a complete different sonic improvement for me.
SM 3.0.0 first for baseline. Very euphonic and as described by yacheah above very much like CJ house sound of old. Loaded the new download Mac version on a new SD card formatted and restarted. Wow. Finally what my expectations are for Windom. Beautiful presentation with overtone colors galore and finely detailed yet the glare and upper mids through top end slight hardness gone. Sweet.
I had previously tried Dirk’s instructions to play it for at least a few hundred hrs and although improved still was not quite right.
This time right outta the card and fresh very, very nice.
