Re: [slim] File Type settings in Slimserver 6.4
6.4! Your 24/96 material will be being converted to MP3 for playback (from memory - it's a long time ago...) either that or it will be being decimated by dropping alternate samples down to 24/48... Any reason not to upgrade? (to 7.5.1) On recent (7.5) the default file settings are best for sound quality and network usage... -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...

Re: [slim] File Type settings in Slimserver 6.4
Hi, Phil. I have tried 7.4.1 but it was sluggish with my thinkpad so I went back to 6.4.1 Does 7.x offer any improved sonics compared to 6.4? Do the FLAC settings, as presently checked per attached picture, allow for conversion at the server or done via my SB3? -- Kellen Kellen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16569 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79886 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Sonics...yes on hi-rez (24/48) as explained - 7.5 is better than 6.x The file settings you have send FLAC from PC to SB as FLAC and then convert to PCM on the SB. There is nothing wrong with this and is in fact the best way to optimise performance and network bandwidth.
