I had the same thing. I transcoded a Linn Records WMA file to WAV using wmal2wav, and all I got through my SB3 was hiss. That file played fine on my computer, though. I then coverted the WAV to FLAC using xACT. I had to change some settings to let it accept the 24 bit 96kHz WAV files, apparently because not all FLAC players accept such files. But the conversion worked fine after that, and my SB3 plays the FLACs just fine. It's also showing this as an 88.2kHz file, though - ?? -- bobschneider ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bobschneider's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31616 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
