What's your budget?
I could recommend Mark Levinson, Lamm, Herron Audio, but these can get
pricey.
Simaudio is good (that is what I am running), if you are willing to go

Not huge, it depends if my Rega amp works, if it does then I'll just

One thing I urge you to try (for either option) is to set the SB Server

Ouch, that sucks. I hope you hear from support soon.
It's possible the PSU fuse is blown. If you open up the unit (don't

I wondered if i could get some input on the best use of the settings in
Sqeezebox Server for optimal sound quality. I use the Transporter
AES/EBU digital out to a Berkeley DAC. Files are ripped to FLAC from
redbook, no high resolution files for now, on a Windows Vista laptop
(until i decide on
For Squeezebox Server there's no good reason to use anything but FLAC
for the file format. Your choices for streaming the FLAC files are
1) as FLAC (natively decoded in the Transporter)
2) as uncompressed PCM, whereby Squeezebox Server decodes the file at
the server computer
The first is the

My DAC has the ability to invert Phase from 0º to 180º. I can't tell

How can I tell if I'm in need of Phase Inversion?

Nope.
Some folks claim otherwise.

There shouldn't be any settings you NEED to change in the defaults. The
only thing you may want to change is to set the volume to fixed 100% so
the DAC gets the native file data and doesn't do any volume scaling.
Sending FLAC to any squeezebox is the optimal setting for quality,
compatibility,
There is no sound quality difference between the coax or Toslink.
They are both transmitting binary code not an audio signal. If you are
receiving noise with the coax when you are turning the lights down its
time to resolve your home's electrical grounding issue.

There is almost difference. Optical induced jitter through the DAC magic
should not be an issue. And the because the DAC Magic is a 24bit system
it should handle the optional 24 bit resolution. That is assuming that
the duets' receiver optical output is 24 bit.

No. Governments go to great lengths to keep this away from the general
