Posted in other forums, but trying to catch the right one:
Problem/challenge I have:
Setup:
Mac computer running iTunes
via ethernet
to Roku Soundbridge
Coaxial digital out to
Bereford Caiman DAC
analog audio out to Cambridge 640 integrated amp
All files ripped from CD to Apple Lossless (ALAC) by iTunes at 16nit/44.1khz. All play fine
I then purchased some hi-res FLAC files (24bit/96khz and 88khz) from HDTracks.com. I then used XLD to convert them to ALAC files of the same bitrate and exported into my iTunes Lossless library. Played through my Mac Pro computer using Bose (I KNOW!!!!) Companion 5 speakers, they play just fine.
However, via the Soundbridge and home stereo, they crash the soundbridge, which then restarts automatically. I also have Firefly running, and have switched the library to my Lossless library. I am about to try this, but does anyone have any tips? My research suggests that the Soundbridge may only play 16 bit files? Is this correct? Do I need to get a Squeezebox Touch to be able to play 24 bit files? Tks.
Thanks
