| What was that plugin that raised the sound quality of Winamp? I generally use Winamp 3, and I was under the impression that that plug-in wasn't available for Winamp 3 yet. I just wanna keep checking. Anyone recall? |

| Actually, when I search for "enhancer" on Winamp.com, no dice. Could it be under another name? |

Only supports Winamp2, but that's ok. I uninstalled winamp3 a while ago because the new playlist sucks ass (doesn't autosave half the time, queues oddly), and the winamp2 crossfader seems to work better (and uses less resources) |

| I *love* the skins for Winamp3, you can really make it look cool...but I have to admit, the usability is poor. No stop after current that I can find and I agree that the playlists are horrid. I may just go install Winamp2 again. Thanks. |

| Dee 2 is a decent one for Winamp 3, but still not quite in the same league as Enhancer for Winamp 2. |

| I'm running it now...what kind of settings do you guys use? I'm not a real audiophile so I'm somewhat lost. I really need something like a "make audio sound better" button =). |

Do I need to listen to the mp3's for you too?? 
Right click winamp -> options -> preferences
Then Plug-ins -> DSP/Effect -> Select Enhancer v0.17
Click Configure
Choose a preset! |

| Right, I understand how to change the presets =). I'm just wondering if there was a specific setting that people were using that was really solid. I'm using general improvements or something like that now, and it seems to work well. |

| I think each person has to tweak it to their own tastes... also remember that everyone has different speakers, so what settings I use on my computer may or may not sound good on yours. I think "general improvements" is a good starting point, then tweak from there. I like the word "tweak." Tweak. |

| Tweak I will =). I tend to be a treble oriented person, so I've modified it a bit to "tweak" the treble output. Even with just general improvements, it sounds a hell of a lot better. At first I could barely notice it, but I just switched back and it was incredibly obvious. |

| Also, the thing I'm noticing more and more as the day progresses is it's ability to cap the sound to minimize the effect of really sudden, louder parts. That's truly beneficial because I use it at work all the time and I'll be talking to someone and the drums will come in and they shoot me a dirty look, lol. |
