Thanks Joe. My only source is a DVD Universal player with onboard processing. I also posted this over on the 'Pro audio' list and got some different reasons for not doing this. Others might want to check that thread. I'm waiting for clarification on one of the replies.I think one of the biggest issues is whether the DAC on the source unit is good enough. I don't think mine is as the analog 5.1 outs to my present receiver don't sound nearly as good as the digital outs (which then use the receivers DAC). However, I am thinking of upgrading my player to an expensive one with awesome DACs, so I was wondering about the redundancy of having the (rather expensive) receiver in my simple system.
