...and wow an extra whole 8-9mA draw! Makes you wonder about those power amps we have...wonder what happens when the music gets louder...hmmm.
To Pat: I'd be happy to be contradicted by Josh C. or Sean et al on this but I'm pretty sure that a FLAC decode error would produce garbage rather than something that still sounded like music. The FLAC's are checksummed to ensure integrity like any RLE-encoded compression system. Replaygain appears to check these and will report an invalid FLAC...which sounds like music right up to the invalid "bit" at which point playback stops. This tells me that the SB must be decoding FLAC properly. What you state might happen to a buggy DSP alogrithm (eg a bad dsp filter or FX plugin - or even to an MP3 encoder) but not to a straight file compression algorithm like FLAC. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal... ...SB3+TACT+Altmann+MF DACXV3/Linn tri-amped Aktiv 5.1 system and some very expensive cables ;o) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phil Leigh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=85 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38258 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
