I am not understanding what I meant with " ... LMS uses 24bits to stream ...". In my case I am streaming native mp3 and flac files in 16/44.1 quality to SB3. SB3 is converting to PCM. I assume PCM 16/44.1 When I let LMS convert to PCM it is a 1411 kb/s stream reflecting 16/44.1 At which stage comes the above in effect?
