Hi, hope this is a question more than a rant... Encouraged my sister to buy the Bluesound Vault2i coupled with audioengine HD6 speakers - she wanted simplicity and a CD ripper built in. First a bit of ranting; 1) the OS is ok but has the same 'can't find album artwork' limitations iTunes always had so there's lots of black squares in her new library. 2) does not show bitrate,file type/quality 3) the USB inputs are limited to memory sticks 4) external drives must be network connected so plopping files on to the vaults drive is almost as tedious as slipping CD's into its slot... 5) hi res .iso / SACD can't be played/imported. Q1 - best conversions software and file type? FLAC? 6) I can beam files via bluetooth direct to the HD6's (which are pretty awesome) or over the network to the vault. Q2 - which is better sound quality (higher bitrate/file size?) 7) Best hi rez streaming sites? 8) How can I get Audirvana to play nice with all these things? Audivarna does everything. I really need to move out of my sisters and get my own place... Thanks
