fmak,

I will give you a heads up if I hear back, should be interesting.

I am not certain, but if it is possible to send DSD signals out to coax, that might be what they are talking about ., I read something about DSD over PCM, not sure either way this is all new to me.

What I have been doing is using Windows software to up sample to DSD 128 everything I play. When I do play DSD to the unit it is either that or pure DSD 128 albums that I have bought or created myself. I don't know and don't think now that the hardware is up sampling everything PCM related to DSD. If that is indeed not the case the DAC on its own sounds glorious. I say for $600 which is the price I paid for it, it is worth it.

But that is just IMHO. Your results will vary, the other DAC I was looking at Earlier was a similar priced one from Teac, but I decided on a whim to go with Aune, and I am happy. The only change I did was connect a higher end powercord to it, and a little bit better USB cable, nothing crazy.

Anyways if something changes in terms of information I hear from Aune or what have you and I find out something new about the DAC I will let you know ...

Take care,
