I received the new Apple TV 1080p and compared it against my Duet. My pre/pro does not accept audio via HDMI, so I was limited with testing the Apple TV using the digital optical out. I have coaxial on my Duet. Both my wife and I agree that the Duet is clearer, produces larger sound stage and provides better audio. I tried changing the DVD Audio settings and the 16 bit settings in the Apple TV, but the settings made no difference. I tried several lossless songs, all 16 bit. FLAC for the Duet, Apple Lossless for the Apple TV. In the future, once I update my pre/pro, I will be able to try the audio via HDMI. I would think it may provide better results than the optical out.
