The 'wav24' setting only affects transcoding for FLAC files. For DSD downloads (.dff and .dsf files), the original DSD data will be sent to the music player.

There is a different transcoding option 'dopwav' for DSD files. This is intended for use with players that don't support native DSD format but do support DoP/WAV format. If your player supports native DSD format, you don't need to use the 'dopwav' option.
