It's just that some experienced people with more expensive converters have indicated that good converters can sound just as good at 44.1 - which surprises me and makes me wonder.
Thats interesting? I've noticed that just with the Digi002, there is a significant difference in quality of sound from 96 to 44.1 sample rate. Now wondering if I would be able to use the 192 sample rate on the A2D if my Digi002 only has 96 capability, or would the 96 be bypassed if I went via spdif?
