Charles,
Theoretically, for most setups max volume should be optimal. If your ears say otherwise, just use whatever sounds best.
Regarding buffer usage: the more the better. If you're seeing 99-100% then this is ideal - it means that your wireless connection is consistently able to move data faster than the Squeezebox is consuming it, which is what you want.

Does anyone have suggestions on what volume level the SB should be set to for best quality audio output. I intuitively thought to just keep it at the max and use the receiver's volume control to adjust. But I was messing around with it and it seemed to sound better at about 50%-60% of max.
Is there a general recommendation on the best volume level?
The second question was on the buffer. I have a lot of high bit-rate MP3 vbr encoded files that are around 280 kbs or more. I don't have dropouts, but when I enabled the buffer view in the player, those files mostly ran the buffer at 99% to 100%. Is that a bad thing? Should I limit the bit-rate to get the buffer usage down?
If anyone has insights on these questions, please share them. Thanks. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
