May be my questions are not clearly stated. 

I am running ST with EDO and expect to be able to play up to 192kHz
material.
The 192 kHz tracks I am playing are playing OK , BUT the Now playing
info is informing that the correspinding high VBR (something like 5000
kbps) is converted to 705 kbps FLAC

My concern is not so much about the actual VBR numbers. My concern is
that the system is noting the stream is converted to a low bandwith
bitrate of 705 kbps

When running wireless the rebuffering suggests to me the actual bitrate
playing these 192 kHz files is high, because meterial with this low
bitrate (705 kbps) almost never rebuffers. 
The conversion indication might not be accurate and this might stem from
misalligned versions of SBS server vs Touch. I run old versions as
reported. I have set up a old firmware version in the Touch as the
latest will not combine with my SBS version.

The OP reacted in the link;
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showth...Rez-flac-files  in the same way I
am here. This is not about the actual reported VBR numbers, which are
always a approximation. I do find the 705 kbps a bit atypical, but that
is all. 
I want to ascertain the system is delivering the original files' Hires
streams and not any conversion of the original data. I can possibly by
connecting a DAC that identifies the streams frequency, but I have none
at hand.
