Dean, I'm not sure - I'm at the boundary of my knowledge. As far as I understand things, no samples are being "dropped" or "repeated", but the clock frequency in the DAC is wandering (very slightly) so all of the samples are playing, but some of them are not at exactly the right time. If this was exaggerated, we'd perceive it as something like the "wow" or "flutter" of a turntable, but it's obviously much, much more subtle than that. I have no way of measuring the s/pdif output except by playing it through an external DAC. Clearly no samples are dropped etc otw DTS wouldn't work. I'm off to research the audible effects (if any) of sample rate drift. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
