If you're playing from your PC (sounds like you are) you want SPDIF (optical or coax) from your PC to the receiver, which then drives speakers. Check ebay for Yamaha RX-V series receivers as they have Burr-Brown DACs. Then you'll at least have decent sounding volume-compressed audio. BTW this is exactly how I listen to music at my PC - well other than I don't use volume-compression. ReplayGain works fine for me with the exception of some music with high dynamic range (big difference between softest and loudest parts). For that, while working at my PC, I think I actually -would- like some volume compression. Instead, I have a genre "HDR" and have musicIP set to avoid music in that genre when building playlists. Might be the best solution anyway. For the moment, I'm just adding the genre by hand. I'll eventually get 'round to writing something in python that reads RG tags, calcs dynamic range and adds a genre. Anyone else have this issue? Other solutions? Thoughts on what RG tag values make for HDR?
