Unfortunately using higher compression adds slightly more stress on the Transporter that was imho false advertised. On a PC the small increase in decoding is hardly measurable but for the CPU and its decoder code with the Transporter it is on the edge. It can't decode 24/96 right. I had files stuttering especialy when using a blocksize of 4608 at -8. Reencoding the same file using a blocksize of 4096 at -8 helps. In theory for 24/96 a blocksize up to 16384 is valid. The Transporter already can't play files with a blocksize of 8192 at all. With something like default -5 all files play for sure though.
