It is sent down the SPDIF at 24-bit. If the volume control is at 100% then the bottom byte will be all zeros, a 16-bit DAC will strip the bottom byte and so it is effectively bit-perfect.
This is with lossless streaming. If you use the onboard mp3 decoder then the output from that is 24-bit to start with. -- radish ------------------------------------------------------------------------ radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27832 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
