you certainly are dramatic with all your ! but you are wrong on all counts

You spouted off a bunch of unfounded, unsupported staemnts. You are going to have to back your statements up with facts before anybody takes you seriously.

Lossless? It is, well, lossless. If the data is exactly the same then the sound is exactly the same.

Decompressing a lossless file is completely different than sample converters. Nothing is converted. It is exactly the same as it was before.

Latency? The file is decoded, the data is exactly the same, and it is presented to the DAC at exactly the same rate (44.1K) as an umcompressed file. There may be a few microseconds delay from when you push the play button but once it gets going it is identical.

iTunes? If iTunes does the same things as described above. Why is it not audiophile? Data is data no matter what program handles it. I use it and a former high end dealer left here the other day and saying this was hands down the best system he has ever heard. I don't believe it is the best by any strectch but it is definitely "audiophile."
