Thanks for the update Gene.
Unfortunately, there is still no info on how or where DSD -> PCM for SACDs' will be performed. Oh well, I guess we'll just wait and see. I do look forward to Anthem's White Paper.
Also, with firewire/i.Link/1394 being incorporated, do you know if there will some type of a clock sychronization between the AVM20/30/D1 and the player? Will this even be posssible as one will be using players of different brands that have their own proprietary synchonization methods such as the Pioneer Quartz Locking System (PQLS) and DENON Clock Synchronized System (DCSS)? This would be nice in order to minimize, if not eliminate, jitter during data transmission from player to pre/pro.
