Hi.
I just saw this post in an email digest I get:
"A couple of weeks ago I asked if it was typical of DVD players to not pass track IDs to the digital output when playing CDs. The Daewoo combo DVD/VHS player I bought did not, and the comments I received from others indicated this was common.
"Well, I returned the Daewoo model and bought a Toshiba combo player (SD-V390). I was pleased to find that it does pass track IDs, although all digital output is at 48khz, even for CDs!!"
Now, obviously I don't think one would necessarily want a DVD/VHS combo player for audiophile use, but does this mean that some/all Toshiba DVD players upsample to 48kHz from the digital out?
If so (and if the unit is of good enough quality), you could conceivably hook it up to an Art DI/O or some other DAC and acheive a nice upgrade in source sound, no?
