I have a question the cause and the answer to which eludes me.  I have a Lumin S1 being fed data from a QNAP NAS via JRiver MC21.  The DSD128 files on the QNAP were recently downloaded from one of the more popular HD sites.  JRMC21 identifies the files as DSF files having a bitrate of 11289kbps and I am assuming this is at a 1-bit word length.

What I don't understand is why the Lumin's front panel display reports the files as 176.4/24 WAV at an 8.467 Mbps data rate.

Can someone please help me with the math, if there's even a formula for converting between DSD and PCM, or possibly give me and idea about what MC is doing to the files before sending them to the Lumin?

Thanks in advance!

Signed....  Confused.

Enable DSD bitstreaming, or else it'll be converted and outputted as PCM by default.
