Apple 24 Bit 96 KhZ

Thanks TBG - yes the file source is 24/96 but I want to confirm that Apple is indeed outputting it at 24/96 and not 16/44.1. Bel Canto is good up to 24/192 but it does not show the signal it is receiving. Thnx for your help.

Great information - I am trying to get the best audio quality possible & this is great. Anyone know an inexpensive DAC which shows the audio signal so that I can tell if its 24/96, etc.?

Bel Canto DAC does NOT accept firewire & I do not know of one.

Thank you very much for the great info. Do you think USB is better sound quality than via the Toslink? Thnx again,
Big Stew

Thanks Drubin - I have the Bel Canto DAC3. I have both a USB and Toslink cable going from my new iMac 24". It will take 24/96 from the toslink but NOT from the USB - it needs a new upgrade box which I am getting.

Do you know of a very inexpensive way to TEST the digital signal coming of the Apple to determine 16/44.1, 24/96, etc.? The Bel Canto has zero signal indications, etc.

Thx, Stew

Does anyone know of an inexpensive DAC that shows the signal sample rate? I want to use that to check - the Bel Canto does NOT show the sample rate.

Thnx,

Stew
