the noise and distortion just not worth it. Tried many different things like you said (and then some hacks too). The Vox player is outstanding software that, unfortunately, the hardware failed it. High resolution is a moot point with Vox. It’s just my experience that may not apply to all, so take this with a ton of salt. Will using the Vox program allow ripping the CDs at a higher resolution, as well as playing back in higher resolution than iTunes? Does this become a moot point for some reason? (I.e., these higher resolution files can’t be obtained by importing CDs, etc.?) Also, will audio played back via the Vox app be streamable, for the time being, via an Airport Express until I obtain a DAC that’s connected by wire? (This is going to be the next chapter in this ongoing puzzle as the Mac is located in a different room from the amp/speakers and will require a long run of whatever cable that connects computer to DAC.). (I keep hearing something like “true” high resolution starts at 24 bit. Unless there’s something buried deeper in some sort of settings, my iTunes on my 2017 Mac limits me to ripping CDs to 16 bit AIFF. I’ve read a few of the guides online for this but still have a ton of questions.This one is about the “Vox” program. I’m new to all this and attempting to set up high resolution audio from my Mac to my integrated amp.
