@mapman @ghdprentice fer’ sure, I’m sure this was the case. I downloaded the contents of the N200 SD card to an old laptop (for reference ) formatted the drive and have added my HD Tracks hi-res files that I have purchased in the past. I’ll use T...

@mclinnguy Cool, thanks for checking that for me! I have a few 192 & 96 kHz - 24 bit files that I purchased from HD Tracks but no DSD files, so I will have to source some out and give them a try. Where did you buy your Patricia Barber's Clique...

@mclinnguy so you can buy DSD files and play them as is, you don't need software to do so, just a capable DAC @audphile1 will the M1 play DSD files? They will sound better, right?

@audphile1 said they were waiting for parts, nothing firm as of yet. Nice thing I found out, is it's already an SE unit, so saving some a bit of coin there. It's just the M1S2 and display to do now.

OK.

Sounds good. I already purchased the dBpoweramp software, thanks all!

OK thanks gentlemen, FLAC it is! Further to ripping, is any old CD rom drive, like that of an old laptop OK? Or is it the better the drive, the better the rip?

@erik_squires, which format would you recommend that I rip CDs Eric or does it matter?  
Sound Quality
@lalitk @bkeske cool, thank you both!

@lalitk  Once the music is all off the SD Card in the N200, is there also a way to format it (in place) so I can start transferring some newly ripped music to it (cut & paste)?

After a fresh install of Window, same thing. Yes, aurender/aurender are the credentials...UGH!

@lalitk thank you, but I was getting impatient and too quickly started a re-installation of Windows 10 before your advice, oh well. at least I know now, lol.
