Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
Only digital sources are dealt with in the digital domain.Sorry for the iPhone accidental premature first post. :-) 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
Do you feel there is a difference between the pass through and a signal coming from the PAV? When a signal comes from the PAV is is it kept analog? I would think that it would be kept analog just like the multichannel inputs are. I think that is t...

Db, I thought you'd bring the oppo in through the multichannel single ended connections on the pdsd. If you just want stereo just hook them up there. Without seeing all your stuff I'm not sure if you had something else already in there. Tim 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
Thanks TLS49 - I am aware of the proceed manual site. :-)DB - I gotcha now. I think the labeling of the connections on the PDSD are what led me to wonder. Plus typical balanced cords you go male to female but it looks like you need male/male to co... 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
db,Does the audio signal ride from the PAV to the PDSD via that interconnect cord? In other words, if I have an analog source connected to the PAV but the amps all connected to the PDSD how does the analog signal get to the PDSD.And as I type this... 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
Db,I have a question for you that I'm sure is in the manual and if you want to send me there that is cool. But looking at pics on ebay of the pav/pdsd, it is not clear to me - how do you connect them together?Tim 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
DB - A different DB. :)Oh now you are talking my language about a quality vintage device, but you have one with multi-channel input. IF I were to consider the PAV/PDSD route, do you have any advice/gotchas to watch out for?DTC - I probably could c... 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
db,The Classe and Bryston would be fantastic of course, but out of my price range right now, sadly. So - resetting my expectations then, I'm either looking at staying with my current rig or move to something like say an AVP2 or SSP600 and add a HD... 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
Thanks dtc! Yeah so the pondering becomes using the core track audio on the older proceed gear vs something newer that will at least be the proceeds equal for 2 channel sound. I hope that makes sense. And all the threads I've read says that the ol... 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
Dpphd,Thank you for your response. I do not currently own a AVP or 2 or 2+6 for that matter. There is currently a +6 here on agon for $2K. At that price, I think I'd probably throw in the towel and go with something more modern. From what I gather... 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
Thank you for all of the information. Yes, my question was really if the AVP or AVP2 could get the 5.1 LPCM data and do something with it. I now know the answer is nope - 5.1 LPCM is newer than the AVP/AVP2 DAC can handle. Fair enough.And yes, I w... 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
Thank you HTH & Mezmo - you have answered my questions. I was hoping to indeed get the DTS-MA decoded in the PS/3 somehow into the AVP or an AVP2. Seeing as how I currently decode in the PS3 and send LPCM over HDMI into my Rotel RSP-1069 I was... 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
I think I have found my answer out on the web:Optical or Digital coax can only carry two channels of LPCM. HD Audio like LPCM will not pass over s/pdif (your optical connector). So if you want the benefits of that you will have to use HDMI to your... 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
I googled and found a little black box that converts LPCM into 2-channel analog. I want to keep the LPCM information in multi-channel. I guess I need to read up more on what LPCM really is. 
Will a Proceed AMP handle LPCM input?
I looked in the owners manual for both the AVP/AVP2 and couldn't find a definitive thing either. Can you give me a lead on one of these little black box adapters? I am not familiar with them. Thank you.
