Someone linked to this interesting read coming from some man that has
some knowledge about audio and what is audible or not. He is the main
developer of the ogg codec and alone for that he should know 1 or 2
things :)
A very interesting point

Thanks Andy for the link to a very interesting article. Parts of it
were over my head (he kind of lost me in his discussion of
oversampling), but overall he makes a lot of sense.
Hopefully knowledgable people like him can bring some sanity to the
situation. 24 bit/128kHz formats seemed like

Not me. I wake up every day with a burning desire to have someone else
tell me what I can and cannot hear.

..except it's not about what you and I can hear, it is about what any
human being can not hear .
Thus why a support structure for 192kHz as a consumer format is a total
waste and why it will be a unlikely feature on a price limited product
as a squeezebox why have a feature that in best case is
I do remember that Quad always bandwidth limited their amps in stark
contrast to the slewerate fad that was the buzz word in amp design in
the 80's ?

Thre are only 3 senses you can trust and sight and sound aren't 2 of
those... :-)

You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it
ain't what you'd call minimal...

Hi Phil (Leigh),
I don't know if you are still reading this thread but if you are I'd
like to ask you a question.
I had a go at getting Inguz up and running on a QNAP NAS but after a
long time trying gave up. I got partway there but InguzDSP.exe doesn't
seem to like the QNAP environment. So I

I've looked carefully into the 192 issue with the Touch and I see no
hardware reason why it cannot be done. The crystals are the correct
frequencies, the reclocking flops will easily work with those
frequencies etc. The only hardware issue might be TOSLINK. Very few

Great article! I especially like his vision analogy. I'm still waiting
for some extra infrared and UV bandwidth for my TV. When are those
broadcasters going to get their act together?

I just joined the SBT bandwagon last week, hopping on from a Duet which
has given me a lot of good times in the last few years.
My SBT is connected via wifi to LMS and coax into an Esoteric K-03 as

5V for the SBT. Hearing
You are trading a solution to a no problem for a real problem with
the FLAC PCM setting .

makes an audible difference in a squeezebox system . What x factor makes

Its a nice read and he's probably right in his conclusions - however one

he's writing. In particular, the reconstruction of a discrete signal
