I notice a distinct drop in the visualizer framerate when using onboard FLAC decoding, so there's a pretty big CPU hit. (But I agree that you need a lot of "possibly" and "theoretically" disclaimers before translating that into lower audio quality). - Jacob _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
