Hi Phil, Most recently I heard this from GW Labs, which makes 'the excellent DSP upsampling device' (http://www.gw-labs.com/products/index.html) based on the CS8420 I believe. Digital volume control still works from the SB3 through this device, but apparently the 24-bits are not passing through unchanged. I guess technically this results in some kind/amount of distortion(?) but who knows what the audible effect is (if any). I don't notice any degradation whatsoever, in spite of their assurance that the bits are being altered. -- NewBuyer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NewBuyer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7862 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38233 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
