Had my friend try it this morning as I remembered on the audio settings for the PS3 on the menu one can able that option. When he tried it using video 1 optical on his Sony amp, it came back reading "PCM 48" on the readout screen when he first started playing "The Prestige".

It is just something else I can try on my Denon 3803 when I get a player. I doubt it is the best option per se but it is fun messing with this stuff! :)

I really haven't been doing SACD MCH with the Denon lately. It is just much better using my Rogue tube pre amps for 2 channel and enjoying SACD that way. That frees up my audio analog inputs for BD!

I can enjoy all of the above... - oscar 21:09:21 08/26/07 (0)
Separate MC SACD (actually Universal) SACD player plus a separate 2-channel modded 777ES SACD player feeding a battery powered tubed preamp (I have to swap out connections (preamp to the amp) though for stereo listening).

Now to figure out how I'm going to acquire five (5) 1000W tubed monoblocks for HT. Though that will probably be "easier" to get then that uber-Universal, full-featured player with 7.1 true balanced analog outputs, SOTA DACs and TrueHD/DTS HD MA decoding.
