Re: Question about 96/24 sources...


Randy,

Thanks for the reply. If I understand this correctly, the 96/24 is a DTS thing (as DD maxes out at 44.1 kHz), right? Here are the relevant parts of the respective owners manuals that are confusing me...

From the 2105 AVR user manual:

And the 1600 DVD player user manual:

Denon_1600.JPG

It looks to me as if the AVR is only prepared to to 96/25 on DTS stuff, so only my DTS DVDs (superbit and normal) would benefit? But then the 1600 manual does not mention DTS at all, and it says that it will downconvert any copyrighted protected material anyway (which most DVDs are... so what's the point? ). Right now, I have it set to 'Yes' so that it will force downconversion, just to be on the safe side (I dont want to sent something the 2105 can't handle), but then I agree with you that Denon is great stuff, and I cant see them crippling their products. So, the problem is with my vast understanding () of this stuff...


Peace... Vader
