Re: [SurroundSound] convert flac to mac...

Flac is merely a lossless compressed version, useful for tagging.  If your software can't play the flac file directly (as e.g. foobar2000 can on PCs), decompress them to their original form:  in this case, dts.wav.  

For streaming, as with any dts, aac file, your signal chain must not alter the bitstream in any way.  That means the playback volume must be at max, and there must be no sample rate conversions or DSP active.
