Pioneer 47Ai / Audio Refinement Pre2 DSP help

I just had Stan Warren modify my Pioneer 47 Ai universal player and I also purchased an Audio Refinement Pre2 DSP preamp processor. As I was reading through the Pioneer manual there is mention of the AV receiver needing to be compatible with high sampling rates (96 kHZ). I checked the manual for the Audio refinement pre and there is no mention either way if it is compatible or not. I am REALLY hoping it is and that I did not make a mistake buying this pre. I bought it specifically because it has the 6 analog inputs for DVD audio and SACDs - I really appreciate any answers you can help me with.

If you're sending the analog output from the Pioneer to
the AR there's no issue. If you're connecting the digital
output from the Pioneer to a digital input on the preamp
it needs the 96k capability, but I believe the Pioneer can
also be set to output a 48k digital signal, like most DVD players.
