I think it was mentioned in the Stereophile M2 review... The sample rate flag is embedded in the bitstream and tells the receiving DAC what sample rate the bitstream is (44.1, 48 etc). Some transports don't set this to anything as it is NOT needed by most dacs because they auto-sense the incoming sample rate. The NAD seems to have some quite sophisticated processing on its digital inputs... I'm sure this has cropped up before? -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
