I am doing some comparison listening using my new sound card hooked up to my HK635 avr against my Denon universial player. I notice when I switch to the dvd player the avr reads 44.1 and when I switch to digital in from sound card the avr reads 96 pcm. Is the avr getting a better signal with more info from the sound card? Trying to understand all this bit perfect stuff. I have the Av710 on high res 2 channel.

AV710 in High samplerate mode upsamples all audio to 96KHz. It is possible to use straight 44.1KHz. Search this forum to find instructions.

Is there any disadvantage to upsampling to 96khz? Should I change setting to use straight 44.1?

Which one is better? 96khz, 48khz or 44.1khz?

breez, do you mean that even on high sample rate mode, it's possible to force it to output 44.1KHz instead of 96KHz?

I have no knowledge regarding this. So i'm not sure which terms i should be searching for. Do you mind enlightening us?

Thanks

to force 44.1khz, with driver 4.51c or lower select two channels mode and pcm only, connect to black jack. upsampling alter sounds but you cant make more information out of what already is. noticable effect is stronger frequencies, more bodily treble and bass.
