yeah, jconv is the best-sounding convolver in the world.
the clarity of its fft, the warmth of the multiplications, and the
effortless fulminance of the inverse fft add a lustre to strings and
percussions, and the tightness of the fundamentals is in a league of its
own. ever since i had my cpu socket gold-plated, i've been able to
appreciate it in full.
