Kal -
It does. The 2 moth recent iterations do anyway. Not to say that they do it well, just that they do it.
I hope that you wont mind if I pick your brain on a couple of subjects. I want to explore the possibilities of sacd/dvda over hdmi to a pre/pro. It just seems so simple and elegant in terms of set up and I would really like to find a way to make it sing.
I have read a little about the concern of increased jitter over hdmi. Is this a problem in your experience and if so, have you found a solution?
Have you had the chance to compare hi rez digital audio via hdmi (like the oppo / integra combo that you wrote about) to a more traditional set up like an ayre or esoteric with analog outs going to a more traditional pre amp? If so, what were your thoughts? Are the Dacs and outputs of the pre/pros up to the task?
Thanks for your contributions.
