I have tried that and didn't notice any degradation of the files or the mix, it just seemed a little strange, bouncing the bounce.

If they didn't then putting a gigabit switch into an environment with some CAT5 cable would break those circuits, which thanks be to Odin it doesn't. Bizarre that a Mac couldn't do this, but what do I know about Macs save the BSD core that is down there in the core.
