J river Media Center 16 settings.....HELP
Also posted on the Asylum.........
Presently, I am running J River Media Center 16 on a Windows 7 64 bit platform. I have the usb connected to a Musical Fidelity V Link which upsamples to 24/96 and running the spdif output to my Emotiva dac which can accept up to 196K I am using the WASPI output setting in the Media Center, and for high rez files I have downloaded from HD Tracks, the music is perfect, couldn't ask for more. In this instance, I am NOT using the built in dsp in the Media Center software.
The problem is when I play my regular non-high rez files, the software in the Media Center automatically engages the dsp module and sets the output for 24 bits. I am unable not to use the dsp when playing regular 16 bit files!!! I assume this is because of the V link upsampling everything to 24/96.
Now the million dollar question.....is this how it is supposed to be and am I losing fidelity by having the dsp module engaged in Media Center?? I hope some experienced users with the J River Media Center can chime in.
