At the risk of sounding like a Panasonic schill......

Speaking of PCM: I just received Panasonic's 2002 catalog, and for the top-of-the-line SA-HA200 receiver, it lists a digital "Multi-Source Re-Master" capability. It seems similar to Pioneer's Legato Link processor. It says it helps MP3 and WMA playback in particular (which makes sense). A 192/24 DAC is also used in this model.

I realize MP3's and $600 receivers aren't "hi-end", but I thought this was interesting, since they don't list this feature on their website.
