Thanks for the inform on the SACD/ coaxial restriction!
Thanks for the inform on the SACD/ coaxial restriction!
I've done many HDMI de-embedders (Atlona, Monoprice,etc) and have a full thread (sticky in my HiRez Music Circle on AC) I started 4 years ago with reviews of them, since at the time it was the only consumer way of pulling anything greater than redbook off of SACDS (this was prior to my SACD Ripping guide days). It worked for DVD-A and BluRay audio, too...most easily 2 channel. But it was still a cheap non-optimized solution.

It's much easier (and better sq) to simply rip DVD-Audio (whether LPCM or PPCM) via DVD-Audio Extractor or DVDA_Explorer. The former has updated Windows and MAC licenses that work just fine. The latter is often hard to find.
My many DVD-A rips on Hugo each sound sublime.
Hmmm....I have hundreds of multichannel rips too...can you say stacked Hugos? !! Would be interesting to go up against my exaSound E28 or stacked Myteks.
What's the chord Hugo and my Mrs got in common? they both cost a small fortuneUK joke - what has the Hugo and UKIP got in common?
they both know how to slay the competition... :tongue_smile:
What's the difference between the chord Hugo and my Mrs,one has a on- off switch and the other doesn't.Think I'll stick to my day job i ain't no comedian
Yes, I am the one who wrote the guide
