Soundcheck, you are avoiding the topic of this thread and still haven't given any reasons why server OS and cables between the server and the player would influence the SQ. If, say, a flac file is downloaded from the other end of the world over the Internet directly to the player and then played, it would be preposterous to say that the type of the OS on the remote server and the conditions/type of the cabling, routers, switches etc on the path between the player and the remote server determine the SQ when the file is played. And streaming over TCP is similar to this non real-time "downloading a file".
