| Amarra HiFi and 24/96 FLAC Files - Heads Up OK, so I converted the FLAC files to AIFF using Amarra HiFi, they play fine now. I also downloaded the trial version of Audirvarna Plus, so I could play the FLAC files directly without using iTunes. Comparing the regular CD version of Norah Jones ... | |
| Amarra HiFi and 24/96 FLAC Files - Heads Up The previous poster is correct, Amarra HiFi only works with iTunes, which does not support FLAC. According to Amarra I need to convert my FLAC files to AIFF and load them into iTunes. Apparently they will then play at full HD resolution, in my cas... | |
| Amarra HiFi and 24/96 FLAC Files - Heads Up I am working with Amarra to resolve this problem, they are very helpful people. It would appear Amarra HiFi will indeed handle up to 192 kHz files.

| Amarra HiFi and 24/96 FLAC Files - Heads Up Yes, it is possible to convert 24/96 FLAC files to AIFF using Amarra HiFi.

| Amarra HiFi & HD Tracks Thanks for your help Gocubs999. I am using a MF V-Link 24/96 USB to SPDIF conversion onto a Krell HTS 7.1. The Krell DAC will handle up to 24/96 files without problem. | |
| What's your favorite Apple-based music program? I thought, if one uses Amarra HiFI with iTunes it is necessary too first convert HD FLAC files (24/96 and above) to AIFF? If this is done, the files are down coverted to 16/44.1 (or 16/48?) so they can play on iTunes? Is this correct? | |
| what speakers would you choose for a hometheater? FWIW; I have a N801, HTM1, N805 and ASW850 B&W setup driven by a Krell KSA-250 (L & R) and two Pioneer Elite M-91 (center and surround). Sounds perfect to me. In fact, my wife and I have just watched/listened to Adele live at the Royal Alb... | |
| MacBook Air For HD Audio Hifinutt604,Thanks for your comments. Agree; I will need a USB to SPDIF converter. I was thinking of using the MF V-Link 96 (or 192). I will have a look at the Audiophilleo2 as an option. | |

| So Many Apogees for sale, and so few takers Many years ago (20?) I remember hearing a pair of Apogee Divas, powered by two Krell KSA-250 amps, at a HiFi show in London. To this day, I still think these are the best sounding speakers I have ever heard. One day I plan to buy a restored pair o... | |
