ASIO, its more stable

do remember to map all the channels as shown in the pic in the guide. matters if you're going to play ac3 and dts stuff as well as use dsp to simulate surround.
Resample to 96Khz and output at 24 bit

I dont use DTS or AC3 files on foobar... thre high quality stuff is all FLACs.

And how do I map all the channels ?? It isnt very clear. I have left it for now coz I listen only to stereo music.

if you play only stereo, then you dont have to map the surround channels

Stumbled across another SRC plugin for foobar
Secret Rabbit Code Resampler for Foobar2000.

its better than PPHS for sure, but cant say about SSRC. Maybe someone with better equipment/ears can help
