An external DAC could of course help. But volume differences have nothing to do with a DAC. I'm confused about this volume difference part (the analog output of the duet is about the same as that of a normal CD player). Are you using replay gain? This is not a bad thing I use album gain all the time on my transporter), but it would mean that you have to play louder than with a CD player.
Further, I would check if you're really listening to FLAC. Go to Settings, tab Advanced, at the drop down choose File types and look at the FLAC entry. It should be (this is in SC 7.4): FLAC: Native MP3: Disabled PCM: Disabled (this entry could be called WAV) Teus -- Teus de Jong ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Teus de Jong's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15415 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=61755 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
