Default New AVR Receivers

As understood (correct me if I'm wrong), SACD audio can be processed,
(with bass management and room equalization functionality) in the newer
receivers and pre/pros, provided both the SACD player and AVR receiver
or pre-pro are HDMI 1.2 or 1.3 compatible.


And have DSD included.

Has anyone had experience
with such systems, and does anyone have an opinion as to the quality of
the resulting SACD audio? Would the equalization systems (e.g., the
Audyssey MultEQ system) utilized in some of the new receivers work with
SACD inputs in HDMI 1.3 format, and would the results be as good as I
get with line-level analog signals fed through an ICBM? (One current
problem being that not many SACD players are HDMI 1.2 or 1.3 compatible).


I have been using this configuration. Contact me off-line, Jim.

Incidentally, if this is the wrong ng for such a subject, perhaps
someone can tell me where to go. There are a few discussions of the
issue on AVS, though not primarily of the audio quality issue.


Really? I see it there.
