Sorry, your answer missed me (sounds english ? I always had difficulties with "miss" constructions...) OK, so WAV is definetely not RAW data. Concernings formats and codecs, I should receive my SqueezeBox Classic tomorrow, so my tests will decide wether I'll use FLAC and something else (OGG or MP3), or only WavPack. Concerning WavPack, since Cowon media players supports it, it could be OK for me...
