Not true - while S/PDIF's error handling is indeed limited, it DOES detect errors using parity bits. A DAC typically will mute if it is receiving a stream with errors, but it could also mask an occasional bad sample using interpolation. -- seanadams ------------------------------------------------------------------------ seanadams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32993 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
