I searched the thread but couldn’t find it. Does the iFi Zen Stream support ALAC over DLNA?

I used software volume control with the 2qute.

Thanks Rob, for taking the time to reply. Really appreciate it! I was at my normal listening level with the Rogers LS3/5a's directly connected to the 2Qute at 30% attenuation (70% volume level); so I expect the Hugo TT 2 to be more than able to achieve all desired volume levels. Moreover, I...

Hi Rob, And a big thank you for designing such amazing stuff! As a music lover and scientist I really like your approach. I have been using the 2Qute for almost three years now and I am still amazed about the details it is able to retrieve. I use the 2Qute with an old Cyrus Two amplifier...

Five years old by now. Epia ME6000 fanless mini-itx motherboard. Enclosure made from an old cassette deck with a custom-made aluminium front plate.

I just tested Airfoil with the following set-ups: - iMac running iTunes > Airfoil > Windows XP machine with a Chaintech AV-710 soundcard (flashed to Prodigy 7.1) > Toslink > Cambridge Audio Isomagic S-700 (HDCD capable) - iMac running iTunes > Airfoil > Macbook Pro > Toslink > Cambridge...

I was fiddling a bit with foobar passtrough on iTunes 7. I used multi-plugin 2.4.2 and Foobar 0.94 with Kernel Streaming. Like some others I didn't have sound at first. I also got it working by switching Quicktime output to motherboard on-board sound rather than my AV-710 soundcard, thanks for...

never mind, read it wrong

There are several ways to achieve bit-perfect digital output with the Chaintech (flashing, Kernel Streaming, ASIO4ALL). Flashing works with any player software, ASIO4ALL and Kernel Streaming just with Foobar and Winamp. Search the forum, all information on this subject is there!

wav! Every player supports it. Why go through the trouble of using anything else for just 40% less storing space. Only real problem is that the wav files themselves cannot contain tags. But your player's library can!

I use the ESI/Audiotrak drivers for my Chaintech AV-710 and like them. If you want to use coaxial digital out and no breakout cable you may also consider the ESI Maya 44. Analog out of the Maya may be of lesser quality than the Juli@ but using digital out it will undoubtedly be just as good as...

You know the digital out of the AC'97 onboard sound will be resampled to 48kHz and will therefore not be bit-perfect? It will work quite well but not be optimal. To get bit-perfect digital output you will need to use a soundcard in this case.

Yes, the Chaintech AV710 can do 16/44

Hi Kwitel. I am curious if you managed to recover your tags?
