Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] US Amplifier advice please

2009-10-28 Thread ctbarker32

I'd like to put in a plug for Emotiva amps. 

http://www.emotiva.com

They are an up and coming designer manufacturer who designs in
Nashville and manufacturers in China. The value to cost ratio is off the
charts. Any one looking for a great amp at low cost would be remiss in
not auditioning their products. They only sell internet direct and offer
free 30 day return/trial.

I don't work for them but and just a really enthusiastic customer.

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] 48k/24bit Flac ok on SB3, not on Softsqueeze?

2007-05-19 Thread ctbarker32

Hi,

I've just noticed that 48k/24bit flac files play fine on my SB3s but
only play white noise using Softsqueeze?

Is there anything I can do in my config to fix?

I'm running my slimserver on Linux. Softsqueeze on Windows Vista
client.

Thanks.

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] SB3 Classical FLAC 96k/24b

2007-01-28 Thread ctbarker32

Hi,

A happy SB3 owner times three here.

In a recent post on Audio Asylum a link was given to some free
downloads of Classical music in the FLAC format at 96k/24b.

The link is here:
http://www.highdeftapetransfers.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATSCategory=14

I downloaded and tested these files with my SB3's running the latest
firmware. They all played well and sounded quite good. Can I assume I
am hearing them at their full resolution? What I am confused about is
whether the SB3 does any downsampling of the 96k/24b source?

Thanks for your help.

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Re: SB3 Classical FLAC 96k/24b

2007-01-28 Thread ctbarker32

One of my SB3s is hooked up to a Benchmark DAC1 which supports 96k/24b.
Is the downsample still applied to the digital output or will my SB3
pass on the full sample to my DAC1?

Thanks.

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Re: Inguz Audio tips and initial impressions

2006-11-08 Thread ctbarker32

I quickly browsed the web page and was unclear about requirements.

Does the plugin only run on a Slimserver running on Windows?

Or, does the plugin run on a Linux Slimserver but the tools required to
run the room correction utilities only run on Windows?

Thanks.

 Have you looked at this page:

 That should be the definitive guide to the hardware.

Yes, I have looked at this but it illustrates my point in that it is
less than definitive in in its information. For example there is no
information on what bit rates and sample rates are supported by FLAC.
It does not differentiate that some codecs can be supported depending
on what OS the slimserver is hosted on. I'm just asking for clear
complete display of information. Right now these odd bits of info are
scattered all over.
