I would go with a simple mechanical switch, assuming that meets your
usage requirements. If you use an auto-selecting device, you would need
to evaluate its design to make sure it isn't going to impair clean
pass-though of the signal.

Non-linear spectral contamination is the result. However small, it is

OK, fair point in theory. The question is, at what

In theory ANY bitstream, PCM or not, that can be sent over s/pdif at

I can no longer reproduce this, so perhaps I made a mistake. I have
heard that sound during my tests, but I can't remember now what I did

The DTS file is about 50MB, and doesn't lose much when zipped.
This indicates that you have the raw DTS data at its nominal bit-rate,
not the CD bit rate (44.1 * 16 * 2 == 1.4112 Mbps).
Since SB2 does not know anything about DTS, what you need is a file

Hi Wayne, and others who might have been there. Anything interesting to
report from the gathering that was to take place during RMAF, and which
is described more fully below?
