The comment being discussed was an assertion that "but I found that reproduction of Apple Lossless files through the SB3 was noticeably poorer than WAV or AIFF, even after checking that Slimserver was not transcoding ALAC to MP3 etc." So the question I had was which File Type was being used when making this comment...ALAC->FLAC or ALAC->WAV? He just said that he wasn't using ALAC->MP3, but didn't specify whether he was using FLAC or WAV. If he was using ALAC->FLAC (the default setting), then the comment I posted was appropriate, because he was then comparing ALAC->FLAC to WAV->WAV (instead of ALAC->WAV to WAV->WAV)... :-)->:-D -- PhilNYC Sonic Spirits Inc. http://www.sonicspirits.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PhilNYC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=837 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34122 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
