Just because it is a 24/96 or 24/192 DAC means little by itself, regarding at what sampling rate it will play a CD. Without some kind up upsampling devise, a Redbook CD will play at 44.1 simply because it was made to play at that sampling rate.
24/96 DAC + DVD Player - Help
I recently picked up a Musical Fidelity X-24K 24/96 dac, and have it hooked up to the coax output of my cheap Sony DVD player. I have yet to see the DAC indicate a sampling rate above 48k. Is this normal? Is it a function of the recording, rather than the DVD player? When I turn off Dolby Digital at the digital output, it defaults to D-PCM. Is that the issue?
Thanks,
Neil
