So I think we have estblished that you want surround sound....but of course SB1 2 and 3 all have stereo outs only in analogue. So using SB as the final link in the chain is out. You could us the SB/slimserver to stream encoded DTS or AC3 (theres already some threads on this) and then use the digital out to a digital amp. However you have still got a problem because as I previously said whilst you may be able to rip the audio from DVD (and some surround CDs) into DTS - SACD is not in this format. So you would have to extract the 5.1 using an SACD player's analogue out and using some fancy DVD encoding software re-encode it yourself into DTS. It would be a nightmare!
I think we can safely say that for the current time streaming surround from SACD is not going to happen on the current generation of squeezeboxes! -- ajmitchell ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ajmitchell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=800 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=20148 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
