Either the buffer is full or it's not , you get real drop outs if the wifi cant keep up that is not subtle . As long as it is data in the buffer it will perform the same . IME the Touch keep aproximately 30 seconds in a full buffer for lossles 16/44.1 . On the other hand IME 50% is not good enough for streaming 24/96 especially as PCM you are likely to get dropouts . BTW do stream as FLAC instead you save almost half the bandwith and as archimago has measured it makes no difference whatsoever then you might have a chance to get it going at 50% .( it would not make any difference even if no one had measured it there is no really plausible mechanism for this to happen, the idea is so far out that it is up to claimants to prove this with facts ) . Personally I would wire two stationary data things :) there is no real point in using wifi for non portable stuff . Sadly I have not yet figured how to wire my kitchen player since I moved to a new apartment :/ I might not stay to long in this apartment and hesitates to drill in a 30cm supporting concrete wall ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97950 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
