    This puts the matter into the proper frame. I didn't know that. So it
    looks like kaffeine/xine may not be the practical tool for everyday
    audio CD playing. I recall having seen something about filters in xine.
    I'll see if that won't then make the digital output approach the analog
    one.

    I'll try that just to make sure.

    Thanks a lot for the explanation
