Hey guys,
I want to be sure I have my PC setup correctly to achieve the proper bit path. Whether I'm bit perfect or not, I have no clue, but I at least want to be sure I'm not creating any interference along the way.
My setup from source to DAC goes as such:
Windows 7 Enterprise x64
Realtek High Definition Audio Output via USB (uDac 2)
-Under settings for this, my default format (when running in shared mode) has the following options:
J River Media Jukebox 14
- Under settings for this, under Output Format, I have the following options:
Music Library
Do I have everything setup correctly? If I need to change something, please let me know, and feel free to educate me more on this whole process.
Thanks!

- 2 channel, 24-bit, 96000Hz (Studio Quality) - I had this one selected

- Under settings for this, under Output Format, I have the following options:
- Bitdepth: Source Bitdepth (selected), 8-bit, 16-bit, 24-bit, 32-bit
- Resample: No Resampling (selected), All Sources, Only Sources <44100 or >48000, Only Sources <44100 or >96000
- Sample Rate: 44100Hz (selected, but greyed due to No Resampling), 44800Hz, 88200Hz, 96000Hz, 176400Hz, 192000Hz
Music Library
- Most music ripped as FLAC from CD (songs all have different bit rates though, ranging from 500+ to 1000+, is this right?)
- Some music from HDTracks at 24/96, but information on bit rate varies between the view window on JRiver vs. the source folder...don't understand why
