No and no and no. Btw spdiff can not carry 5.1 pcm in any aplication its not in the standard it does not exist .
an adition to the standard is that spdiff can carry lossy bitstreams if 5.1 for home cinema but it is AC3 dolby digital or DTS , but that is not lossles discrete pcm channels . there are solutions with 3 parallell spdiff wires each carrying 2 ch each . However what you can do in a wav or flac file is to encapsulate a dts or dolby stream, it will sound as white noise on the analog out but a ht reciever will pick up the bitstream, do a forum search on the subject . -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
