Why ? the server can transcode to 24/96 with SOX there is so little source material in that format, so it's a very marginal customer base, sure it can be developed who will pay whats the cost ? If the hardware was developed for this, the cost will be shared by all buyers and 99.999873% off them wont need that feature.
For listening purposes 24/96 is as good as it needs to be, imho. I also like hirez files and DVD-A but i think I only managed to accumulate 1 or 2 Albums in 24/192 to go with my other 1780 Albums, but I want hirez and tries to get them where i can, how likely is such a file to turn up if you choose your albums and tracks solely according to what music you wanted ? (like normal people do ) ;) For the SPDIF output I have no idea if it's limited by hardware or software ? I don't now if the nic and cpu are speedy enough to cope with the bitrate ? Or the flac decoder will the cpu whimper and die ? -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: SB3 (soon to replaced by a Touch :) It is on preorder) Bedroom/Office: Boom Kitchen: Receiver (soon to be replaced by my SB3 and the SBRto be stuffed in a box in the attic ) I use a Controller various ir-remotes and a Eee-PC with squeezeplay to controll this ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74688 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
