Re: Your impressions of DVD-A vs. SACD....

Posted by Chris from Lafayette on August 28, 2005 at 20:19:38:
Actually, I took the easy way out and did a web search on the 47ai. I found a 1394 trade association site where the following statement is made:
"The DV-47Ai has the capability of transferring digital audio information from the player to a receiver/pre-amplifier via IEEE-1394. Currently the IEEE-1394 connection allows the digital signal transfer of Dolby Digital, DTS, SACD digital bit-streams, and DVD-Audio bit-streams."
In addition, there is also an early review on the Audio Revolution web site which includes the following statement:
"Some of the early universal players didn’t offer bass management for SACD or converted DSD to PCM, thus defeating many of the audio advantages of SACD. This player [the 47ai] keeps the signal pure and in control for both formats. . . " (I've included a link to the full review.)
