The best way to test this is with a full-scale sine wave from the SB2. Very small amounts of clipping are audible on a clean sine input, whereas with music it is only obvious in the loud parts.
In recent firmware revs there is a 1102.5 Hz sine test built in to Squeezebox2. Press "3" on the splash screen to make it run. Then use the new analog-output attentuation setting, and try dropping the volume a couple decibels. If you notice any difference at all, then it means your receiver's inputs are clipping. Increase the attenuation setting until the sine wave sounds clean at any volume level. -- seanadams _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
