I decode my lossless apple aac files into flac on the server and send them down to the SB3 as a Flac stream.
Reason I use AAC is so I can use them in Itune and also have Itune as my ripper. Convenient and quick organisation. Server is a dedicated Unix box (P2 400mhz with 320MB Ram) - Never used for anything else but running Slimserver and store the odd photos once in a while. The player is 2 floors below (server is in the attic). Connected wirelessly. I am yet to experience a stutter .. -- eliw ------------------------------------------------------------------------ eliw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3081 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=19860 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
