Level 8 uses more CPU than 5 - on a PC this doesn't amount to a hill of beans, but on SB hardware (TP, Touch etc) this difference CAN be enough to cause intermittant problems with hi-rez file playback (assuming you are streaming FLAC native, not as PCM). Best bet is to stick with level 5 (actually I use level 0 these days; disk space is Sooooo cheap :-) -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
