There are many reasons to NOT use the HDD connected to the TOUCH (and the related "TinyLMS" inside the Touch). Sound quality is not typically one of them (and I still believe you are not comparing "apples to apples" because of something like very small volume differences, etc.). But this said, there are so many good reasons to use full LMS and not an attached HDD, you should be using LMS on a PC/NAS and streaming lossless files to your TOUCH. Your personal preference regarding the sound quality should make this choice easy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96488 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
