Thanks again for all your input - its much appreciated. In Rotel's defence, they sent me via FTP server, hi-res test files to test how the DAC handles them. I played them in 2 ways:
1) VIA a USB stick connected to an Oppo BDP-95, which was connected to the Rotel using the same digital cable. The files played perfectly. 2) VIA the same USB stick connected to the SBT, connected to the Rotel using the same digital cable. The DAC would "stick" on the 88KHz to 44.1KHz sequence. Go figure! So....I can't entirely attribute this issue to the Rotel. Rather, it appears to be a relationship that's sour :-) Mnyb wrote: > Possibly as all HT gear I know implement the sub filter in the digital > domain so the analog inputs goes trough AD conversion ,when you use the > sub , you usually can't use the direct mode or most mfg these days are > very vague on what's really going on in thier product ,very few have > actual analog pass thru , moder HT gear is best feed an digital signal > . > So when using the sub you get the signal feed trough DA-AD-DA that is > maybe not ideal re soundqality . > > I think the fault is at the Rotel they just trying to pass the blame, > you see this forum people have it working with countless kinds of DAC's > and HT amplifiers ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ slimmac's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9367 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94260 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
