I wasn't aware that DS Audio could transcode FLAC to WAV. Can DS Audio also pad 16-bit FLAC audio to 24-bit WAV data? This seems to result in a sound quality improvement in many cases.

Thank you for your answers. I use the DS audio transcoding to WAV but the brand does not communicate on the Sample Rate. I am disturb by the fact that on the screen of PerfectWave, there's always the original format.
