I had d2 and I7 in the past, and i am a longtime cowon fan. I recentely got an i9 and i am very happy with it. sounds great and no appearent bugs for now.
the bbe viva and viva2 are really nice. i wanted to ask,what are the specific bbe setting for the bbe viva and viva2? I mean..what machbass level? what bbe level, stereo level etc. i didn't find specifics for this anywhere.

I assume the ViVA presets are more specifically tweaked than a sum of the other BBE enhancements - but there's no clear info about that to be found anywhere.

I measured what they do, the frequency response is pretty conclusive in-your-face. :)

I got one more question regarding this:
are the jeteffect presets (viva,headphone etc.) include also equelizing together with the bbe settings?... or just bbe stuff with no EQ?
