    FLAC

    Lol! Awesome! I would love to pop in sometime and have a look and listen (No pun intended) I use xbmc or kodi as it is known by now. It plays just about anything. I have yet to encounter something it can't play. It even plays an iso file  :thumbs: What is this LMS?

    FLAC

    Agreed, would be pointless. At this stage I want FLAC files that have more detail as the albums I have already so in short if it has not been ripped from a really high quality source I am not interested :) Thank you guys for all your inputs. You confirmed to me what I was thinking.

    FLAC

    Bryan Adams Greatest Hits 2014 Flac Special Edition is what it says. I compared the audio to a youtube vid and it sounds much better. I'll have to compare it with the CD later today. I am playing it through XBMC with HDMI to my AVR. I have a Samsung Note 4 so much more awesomeness than...

    FLAC

    Awesome, thanks. I have a much better understanding now. So, I have all the cd's of all my fav bands, but I know there are files out there that has better sound. Now the question is, where can i buy/download it from? Maybe there just aren't decent source audio to convert it from? ie Meatloaf...

    FLAC

    Brian Adams: Bit depth : 24 bit and sampling rate is 48 kHz So at the end of it all it is possible to get FLAC releases that are in fact HD or SACD quality but i guess in most cases it's going to be = to cd quality?

    FLAC

    Cool, I'm with you on what you just said. But now obviously i would not be able to get that quality from ripping a FLAC of the actual CD so where did it come from? Was there a supper CD somewhere that I missed?

    FLAC

    Lol all good man, I also learned something now (Did not understand the DAC thing) My thought train was: Band in studio recording music. Music recording completed and now goes through process of being put on a CD. A CD can accept only 700MB so is this not the first step on losing some of the...

    FLAC

    Hi guys, I've been browsing on the site for some time now and I don't understand FLAC, I have plenty of FLAC files already and the sound is amazing as I do understand that it is uncompressed/lossless format that brings out a lot more instrumentals. The problem I have is I don't know where it...

    Need help for best playback of downloaded movies

    I had that same issue with my Sony amp as it just does HDMI pass through and does not actually decode the audio so in turn it is connected directly to the TV that only has stereo. With the new amp though it does not detect the TV, it displays my AVR's name so in turn supports all the formats. I...

    Need help for best playback of downloaded movies

    Hey guys. Awesome thread  :) I have an hp proliant n40l microserver running xbmc with an gforce 210 hdmi graphics card that plugs into my marantz 5008. It works brilliantly with dts and dd. Does not look like my graphics card does dts hd though. Just can't get it to work! The problem is the...
