It all depends on which "theory" you want to believe. I would claim that there is no "real" evidence that decoding FLAC on a PC vs. on a hardware player changes the sound quality AT ALL! HOWEVER, by decoding on the server side (PC), then you are increasing the network traffic on your network. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tcutting's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17402 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105646 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
