WIFI under virtually all circumstances has nothing to do with sound quality. Bad wifi can cause dropouts, pauses, etc. but bits are bits, and whether it arrives via wifi or ethernet, the audio quality is not affected. So I suspect your initial problem with sound quality was not the WIFI being used. -- garym ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84960 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
