The SB3 can only handle 48k analogue and digital out. SOX is used in SBS to downsample 96k 24bit to 48k 24bit. The Touch can handle 96k. Dave -- DaveWr DaveWr's Profile:

While your waiting for your Touch you might want to give VortexBox Player a try. It can play up to 192/24 with no problems and no re-sampling. It works with USB DACs as well as S/PDIF. -- agillis rip, tag, get cover artÂ… All you do is insert the CD! http://vortexbox.org agillis Lead

I have two FLAC files of Rebeca Pidgeon doing Spanish Harlem, one is 24/96 the other us 24/88.2. But in both cases they are down sampled to 44.1KHz -- or should I say, the sync light on my DAC indicates 44.1KHz. I would have expected for the 96KHz file for the 48KHz sync light to show activity.

Recent versions of SBS (or SqueezeCenter) downsample hi-rez flac to 24/48 which can be handled natively by a SB Classic. For details, search for 'sox' on the link below or go to 7.3.2 Release Highlights. http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Release_Notes -- Peter314
