Gang,AE uses the TI/BB PCM2706 16 dac/spdif out at 32/44.1/48K that's it
Thanks, Juanitox. These mods look fine but do do anything else than changing the clock quality? Even if one uses an Empirical Audio device, the streaming format still depends on my iMac's encoding of the IEEE 802.11g protocol at the beginning of the wireless connection. Or am I wrong?
itunes to airport express protocol resample anything (mp3, wav,aac) to apple lossless
than the airport stream 16/44khz wav .. so if you are listening cd WAV with itunes you will have a bit perfect wav at the output of the airport express.. that 's all...
but believe me or not but a good clocking system with 16/44khz sounds better than a
jittered 24/96 streaming...
