For information, the file conversion settings in Slimserver were set to ALAC-WAV. Not FLAC. I mentioned MP3 only because someone on this forum once said that I should check that down-converting to MP3 was not taking place. So, I compared ALAC with WAV, and preferred plain WAV by rather more than a country mile.
What my personal experience tells me is that it's all very well claiming bit-perfect decoding of lossless files, but in truth something musical gets lost in the process, when compared with an uncompressed format that the SB can just get on with. I should stress that this is my personal experience - I know what my ears tell me, and I'm happy with the message. -- Shuggie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Shuggie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8568 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34122 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
