Performed a little testing with hi res files 24bit 96/192kHz , you right regarding the sample rates, it can be seen in MIDI and in Devialet screen but in MiDI i still see 16bit and Devialet screen only shows sample rate so no indication for bits.
Any thoughts ?
I would play one after the other while monitoring from activity monitor the network bandwidth being sent.
24 bits version should exhibit a 50% increase of network bandwidth over 16 bits.
