Haven't noticed any sox performance problems on my microserver ? HD tracks also offer 24/96 version of most thier "hi-Rez" or even a pedestrian 16/44.1 version .
But given HD tracks proven bussiness ethics , there is no way to know how any of them are mastered or if the differents version is from the same master, so what buy all 3 versions ? If they are from the same master then it's perfectly safe to buy <= 24/96 versions ,if it is from DSD it would even be beneficial as more ultrasonic gunk is filtered out . One does not have to buy the 24/192 version just because it exist , you would even save money. If you have a very small server with minimal performance then there is always the option to transcode offline with for example dB power amp and have 24/96 copies , I did something similar the other day it took 59 seconds to do a whole hirez album tags and all intact ( alac to flac ). linn ? Do they offer flac now , a while ago they only had WMAL of some work so you had to convert to flac anyway if you have a Linux server. However I can't see no mass adoption to 24/192 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69882 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
