This is likely a dumb newbie question, but how is it that the volume level of a song can change across 2 sources that both use SPDIF digital output into the same amp?
When I rip a song to FLAC on my PC (EAC/FLAC/Foobar2k) and use the digital coax output from my audio card, it plays at a much lower volume than the same song from my CD transport. How can this be if its just streaming bits from the song?
Is one of the software pieces chaning the bits and adjusting the volume? Or my sound card?
