Can anyone verify that iTunes 9 outputs bit perfect audio on Snow Leopard? I tried to test with a DTS file, but iTunes doesn't have the codecs for DTS so I don't know one way or the other.
I've disabled Equalizer, Sound Enhance and Sound Check in iTunes. I've set the MIDI in utilities to 44/16 since that matches the quality of lossless audio in my library. My library is currently in FLAC format, but I am thinking of using XLD to convert to ALAC losslessly, managing and playing the library through iTunes.
I'm also willing to play the FLAC files directly through Cog or another player, if Cog or another player offers bit-perfect output.
Thanks in advance for your help. I'm a mac newbie.
