Eine Bitverlängerung ist sicherlich kein Problem so lange ein zügiger Prozessor am werklen ist. A conversion from 16 or 24 bit integer to 32/64 float and back can be performed without loss. The problem is mixers in general mix multiple streams, apply volume control, etc. As one is doing a calculati...

Almost all operating systems (win, osx, linux) have a mixer. To avoid severe quantization error, all inputs are converted to float. Then the mixing is done. The float is converted back to 16 or 24 bit integer because this is what out DACs do understand. Most of the time this converted value is dithe...

You might try http://www.toneboosters.com/tb-isone/ It is a VST plugin allowing you to fool around with a lot of parameters. From the website: • Zero-latency processing, allowing for studio and live operation • Support of all sampling rates from 22 to 192 kHz • Loudspeaker designer to model frequenc...

As far as I know, all Qnap models comes with Twonky.
As a NAS is Linux most of the time: http://www.twonky.com/products/twonkyli ... loads.aspx

Linn runs a real time Linux and uses UPnP ( a industry standard for streaming AV). You need a NAS supporting this. Often this is done running TwonkyVision on the NAS as a UPnP server. If you run Win7 this will probably also works as Win7 has a good DLNA implementation. This is what Linn recommends: ...

You might have a look at Hypex http://www.hypex.nl/, makers of the UCD amps (Class D)

They also offer configurable plate amps: http://www.hypex.nl/index.php?option=co ... &Itemid=91

WMP or iTunes use the Win audio engine. By design everything is resampled (most of the time by a Win module) to the sample rate as set in the audio panel. As the Hiface is 24, 24 bits is the best setting. If the bulk of your audio is CD (44.1 kHz) this is probably the best setting. Your alternative ...

Jim Lesurf did a nice experiment.
He measured the analog out of a DAC Magic when feed by its own adaptive mode USB and by a asynchronous USB to SPDIF converter (Halide).

I agree, most them are horribly overpriced in my opinion. At least when looking at the hardware. Of course they have to develop an interface an programming a system is an expensive hobby. I used a Hifidelio for some time. http://thewelltemperedcomputer.com/HiFidelio/intro.htm The moderate sound qual...

Except that the SBT is limited to 24/96. http://www.logitech.com/en-us/speakers-audio/wireless-music-systems/devices/5745?WT.ac=psE|7340#section=features It can be used stand alone playing from a USB drive (space??) or networked playing your own audio stored on another PC. This requires SBserver to ...
