Hi Caad.
1. wav/flac I use flacs because of tagging. Though nowadays you can apply also tags to wav (dbpoweramp). That wasn't the case some time ago. If space is not an issue. You're probably right. It doesn't really matter anymore what format you're running. Though I belive that flacs+tags are better supported then wav+tags in general. When it comes to decoding. You pretty much confirm that decoding flacs on the Touch is causing nasty (in audiophile terms) side-effects. That's what I'm saying since quite some time. Streaming your .wav as PCM stream - that's what you do now - is nothing else than decoding the flacs on the server and stream them as PCMs to the Touch. Practically we're ending up with the same result. 2. Decoupling & clock Great to see somebody is able to do some serious measurements. It seems than that it is really a rather poor (in audiophile terms) implementation of the clock surrounding electronics causing the trouble. I will try your mod. Would be nice if you could take a picture how you've done your decoupling mods. I just received some NPO caps for decoupling purposes - I'll try it right away as sson as I exactly know where to do it.
