Reply to comment by hallpdx in Is this min-maxing obsession or are there benefits to be had by tweaking things on the OS or digital side and using 'audiophile' footers? by Orangutan_Ulti

No I meant, why are you benchmarking with the computationally most easily decoded platform to test system performance when codecs like Opus, transcoding in real-time, into multiple streams does in fact require <some> processing power. I run a Plex server and all my Music is being transcoded to Opus C-VBR 150 to multiple end-users on the same PC I use as Daily Driver for gaming and rendering tasks.

I'm not benchmarking, I'm just making the point that rendering audio well is very very very easy.
