Catching some FLAC

[rmorgan56]

Looking around for 5.2 audio for the Lexicon, I drifted into downloading .flac audio files from www.hdtracks.com. Played through WINAMP, these babies make my desktop speakers sound like I-don't-know-what, and I can only imagine what the NHTs will do with them when I figure out how to play them through the mains. However, I stuck some .flac files on a stick and stuck the stick into the Genesis, and the Lexicon does not recognize the format. Is there an audiophile in the house who knows how I can bridge .flac files into the car? In particular, what if I copy them whole-hog onto the iPhone? Or, can I burn them onto a DVD in a format that will play as a DVD-A?

Asking a lot, I know. Thanks in advance.

You'll need to burn your hi-def FLAC files to DVD-A. If you are a Windows user, Cirlinca's DVD-Audio Solo will get the job done. http://cirlinca.com/products.htm . There's also a good website with useful information on how-to author your DVD-A for free here: http://www.surroundbyus.com/sbu/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=11 . Mac users can use this free program http://download.cnet.com/DVD-Audiofile/3000-2170_4-85889.html?tag=vtredir to author the DVD-A.
