Digital Drive

Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

The coax cable itself is capable of carrying the full bandwidth of lossless formats like Dolby TrueHD. However, the SPDiF protocol that is used to transports the data only has sufficient bandwidth for the lossy Dolby Digital 5.1 standard.

New formats like Dolby Atmos do not change the capabilities of the SPDIF protocol. Atmos is layered on top of the HD 7.1 format (some call it 7.1.4, for the four overhead channels).

Cerebrate!
