I think August was talking about playing flac files in general, so your bandwidth is not the issue...

The compression level of flac files doesn't influence the audio quality! Flac is a lossless compression format, so when you decode it, you get the same bytes back that went into them. But if you don't want compression for some reason, you would be better of using wav files...

Bye, Wilfred.
