Themis - check one of my previous posts - according to Andy, when using
wired, the wireless radio gets disabled.

wilgartw - increasing bit rate has nothing to do with overcoming packet
loss. The connection to SC is over TCP, so any discarded/malformed/not
recieved packets get re-requested. Eventually all the data will get
there. The question is just how long it takes. If his wireless is
unreliable, then higher data rates means a higher likelihood that
enough data packets get lost to cause the buffer to empty and the sound
to stop. Packet loss won't make it sound worse (as in, less clear,
muddier, not as bright, etc, etc), unless you count no sound at all as
"worse."

The claim is that somehow, wireless makes the quality of sound worse
than wired. As both media types use the same guaranteed traffic method,
we're (or, at least I am) assuming 100% data delivery that's "different
sounding" when recieved wired vs. wireless.

My SB3 is the most expensive part of my stereo. So I'm not going to brag
about it.
