Seems like you have 2 choices:
1) reflac everything to -5 (can be done with a script)
2) stream FLAC as WAV to remove the FLAC decoding burden from the

How do I set the software so the server decodes the FLAC instaed of the
Touch? Thanks in advance. I did try
Found it! Disabling FLAC and forcing the Server to decode to WAV
results in FLAC level -8 playing just fine with minimal PC CPU overhead
(2-3% on my machine).
So two solutions to this:
1. Encode hi-res files to level -0
or
2. Use your server to convert FLAC to WAV and stream WAV to the Touch
Hello Roubil,
I bought myself a SB Touch (french too).
I plugged a hard drive 500 GB Samsung S2 which goes to sleep

You have to check what is the consumption of hard disk and it has a
standby mode
The SB allows Touch (apparently) 750 mA on the USB connector
