That was the point of my suggestion - there is a good chance that there are two different path's here. Escpecially when handling WMA - slimserver must convert it to WAV before sending it to the squeezebox. What the M-Audio card does - who knows? Using wav files should level the playing field. If the difference is the same this time - then the conclusion would be that M-Audio is better and there is no software "hanky-panky". -- tomsi42 SB3, Rotel RC-1070/RB-1070, dynaBel Exact, Kimber Kable 4TC and Timbre. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tomsi42's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2477 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30174 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
