hi guys , so many pages and I've read most of them but still didn't find an exact answer. Does firetv support hd audio passthrough? thanks for an answer..

As per the wiki the answer is no... not at this time anyway.

thanks for the lightening answer
what about multichannel flac files with 24/96 (both for audio only and for embedded in mkv vide)

Well i beg to differ here, pass through work just fine. I have tested it with xbmc latest nightly release as well as spmc. I have tested DD, DD+, DTS, DTS-MA all works fine and my receiver is able to receive 5.1Ch audio with DTS or DD. Netflix is DD+ but other players like MX player or BSplayer downmix it to stereo.
