I use an M-audio Delta-66 PCI based sound card to output music from a server directly to my Receiver. Currently, I use a 2-channel analog audio connection. The analog connection works great, but the files are in WMF lossless format, and the card uses a processor that gives 24bit/96KHz sound processing. The card offers awesome fidelity, so I would like to connect the card digitally to a new AV receiver. Are any of the digital audio connections on standard AV receivers compatible with direct connection via S/PDIF? FYI, I am looking at a Yamaha RX-V 750. Any input appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike
