Sounds like a good thing for you. I wouldn't get rid of my player since it has 6 Burr-Brown DAC's for 24 and 96 bit decoding. It plays both SACD and DVD-A. You won't get that in a sound card. Anytime you convert a format, you lose something. However, I imagine it would be a decent sound since you are keeping the output discrete 6 channel output. -- Sliztzan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sliztzan's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8173 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21542 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
