| SACD/DVD-AUDIO vs Technics SH-AC500D Compatible? The Technics is capable of being a DAC/decoder for DD, DTS and stereo data up to 24/48, I believe. It predates DVD-A and SACD. I use mine ONLY for DD and DTS and use other hardware for stereo CD, DVD-A and SACD. If you get a good receiver with 24/... | |
