Hi John, What you reported is quite similar to what I feel listening to WAV/PCM instead of FLAC (see previuos posts), and the major conseguence to me is that listening to FLAC drive to an early fadigue.
The strange thing is that in my system I could ear nearly the same difference also if I stream FLAC as PCM, and I know is not depending on the bits in the data stream... Maybe Your trials and measures could help to understand, DBT could help to, but please try also some longer listening experience. I realy hope to find out a bug in my configuration and fix it, then I'll use FLAC as storage file format, WAV and CUE are too bad for "tagging" purpose. Thanks, Marco. -- marcoc1712 ____________________________________________________________ SB+, Klimo Merlino + Kent Gold, Monitor Audio Studio 20 Gold SE+, Klimo reference and DIS Interconnect. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ marcoc1712's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34842 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71321 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
