Sean - now I get it. But, if the DAC is going to send its clock back to the transport at the correct rate (and playback of mixed rate sources is required), it's going to have to either read the status bit from the stream or recover the clock from the stream and then change its clock rate pretty quickly in either case? I wonder why the status bits were not used from day one? -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
