>From what I can tell you're using an SB3 as a transport. Assuming you're not using the SB3 digital volume control: Go into Player Settings -> Audio 1. Make sure that "digital output level is fixed" under Digital Volume Control. 2. Make sure you have "No Limit" under Bitrate Limiting. 3. You can also attenuate the analogue circuits if you're using the digital out...under Preamp Volume Control enter "63" for max attenuation. 4. Disable Replay Gain.
If you're paranoid and worried about noise from the display...Go into Basic Settings 1. Change the screensavers to None. 2. Change screensaver delay time to 10 seconds. Make sure you are playing lossless music files ripped with a good ripper, without replay gain or other such funnies. There should no loss of quality on the computer side of things e.g. ethernet, hard disk etc. Things can only go wrong from the SPDIF circuits onwards. If anything, computer based data should sound better than a CD transport (excluding consideration of the SPDIF circuits or analogue circuits).
