(Matt Dralle) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 12:13:45 AM PST US From: Matt Dralle Subject: XDP4000X-List: XDP-4000x Toslink Input... --> XDP4000X-List message posted by: Matt Dralle Hey Guys, I was wondering if anyone knew why the Toslink inputs on the Sony XDP-4000x are hard set at a 480000 sample rate? It will not auto-sync at any other sample rate such as the common CD rate of 44.1k. This means that all of the Sony Changers and head unit CD outputs have to be up converted from the native 44.1k sample rate to the 48k required by the 4k. This just doesn't make any sense to me from a performance or quality standpoint. It would keep 4k owners from just hooking up any generic cd changer to the unit, but that seems a little subversive. Any thoughts or information on this would be most appreciated.
