rbpett Gunslinger Registered: 11/04/08 Posts: 21	Will 997 support FLAC natively? It'd be nice to access either a network server or external hard drive and play FLAC files without any sort of trans-coding. Any ideas/thoughts? _________________________ My system: Outlaw 976 receiver Wyred 4 Sound Mini MC5 5-channel amp Vizio 75" P75-C1 4k display Currently 3.0 surround with 51" Martin Logan ESL for L/R, Martin Logan Motif-X for Center (will do full 5.1 eventually, just haven't had time yet) Apple TV 4k Oppo BDP-103 Blu Ray TiVo Series 4 PS4 Motorola QIP7232 2 Cable Box

I'd suggest looking at the R-972 manual at Sherwood's site. I haven't read the manual in a while, but I don't think it has a network jack. The microphone input for Trinnov calibration uses an RJ-45 jack, but it isn't a network jack. _________________________ gonk HT Basics \| HDMI FAQ \| Pics \| Remote Files \| Art Show Reviews: Index \| 990 \| speakers \| BDP-93

gonk Desperado Registered: 03/21/01 Posts: 14054 Loc: Memphis, TN USA	I checked the R-972 manual this morning. The R-972 supports MP3 and WMA files stored on a USB storage device (formatted as FAT16 or FAT32), but there's no mention in the 972 manual of other supported formats. Also, the RJ-45 jack on the rear panel is for the Trinnov mic. _________________________ gonk HT Basics \| HDMI FAQ \| Pics \| Remote Files \| Art Show Reviews: Index \| 990 \| speakers \| BDP-93
