Clarification for a newb, DACs and other stuff too


I am new to outboard DACs, but am looking forward to the experiment.

I have attained a Theta DSPro Basic (gen I), I want to use a DVD player as the transport.

But, I am almost certain that the DAC is 44.1khz ONLY, and the DVD is 48khz or 96khz output only.

Stands to reason that this won't work.

I am curious if ALL CD PLAYERS digital outputs are 44.1khz, especially since a lot of newer units have the higher 48 or 96 sample rates.

Basicly will any CD player with digital outs do with this DAC? or will I have to find one with 44.1khz only?

Thanks in advance

DVD players have ability to output several different digital formats including standard 16/44.1 PCM data which any digital converter can use.
