(you'll recall my recent queries in Bristol about how FLAC and PCM are routed and whether it makes any differences due to the niggling doubt I had).
Hi Nick,
If I recall correctly though, your concerns at Bristol were caused by your moving the Control 15 Core from a "hard network cable" location to its current location, which requires the use of the Powerline adaptors?
i.e. the
same Core sounded different when moved from a network cable location to one using Powerline adaptors.......... and hence your concerns and subsequent questions at Bristol.
Is that correct or am I misremembering the source of your concerns at the time??
Also at Bristol, we were still under the impression that the FLAC files were being routed to the ID40........ it was several days later that Duncan revealed that the Core was doing the FLAC to PCM Decode and then sending PCM packets to the ID40.
