The server will either not play them at all or downsample them and only send them to the low res units, and not to the Touch. There are a few different scenarios, I don't remember exactly how it plays itself out. But basically, the server can only decode one stream, and it will do what it thinks best for the various units you have on simultaneously.
The "solution" to this problem is to decode at the individual unit and not at the server. Try this together with Klaus' other mods, you may find that in your case it doesn't make a big difference in SQ. -- firedog GIK Acoustics Room Treatments. Tranquil PC fanless server running Vortexbox OS; SB Touch slaved to Empirical Audio Pace Car; MF X-DAC-V3, MF X-150 as pre-amp, ClassDaudio SDS-470 amp; Devore Gibbon Super 8 Speakers; Dual 506 + Ortofon M20 (occasional use); sometimes use PC with M-Audio 192 as digital source. SB Boom in second room. Arcam CD82 which I don't use anymore, even though it's a very good player. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ firedog's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11550 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91322 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
