Dirac and room correction software
#91
1. It is rated at 24/96. How does this affect the source if it is at a higher rate, say 24/192?
2. Does this mean that Devialet will up convert to 24/192 after the DDRC box?
3. Where exactly does this unit fit in the chain, between PC and Devialet?
4. What is the issue with input/source selection that you will need and extra USB streamer($35) that Rodney has suggested?
May be these questions will become clearer once I dip my hands into this.

The ddrc will take 24/192 and downsample it to 24/96 , it will ALWAYS put out 24/96 , no matter what input signal.
Devialet will not upsample after this

The DDRC does not have a usb input , only optical , spdif and AES , so if you want to use the usb out of your computer , you need the ministreamer to convert usb to spdif

Path is pc/ddrc/devialet

Im not sure whether the ministreamer will also allow 24/192 like the DDRC 22 does. Never tried it..

As to SQ.. the up/downsampling etc is almost totally irrelevant due to the massive improvement dirac gives.. its like 100x more potent than messing with sample rates.
