Check the other thread now, Beopaul indicates that B and O has confirmed that the BS3 supports up to 192kHz. Beopaul has asked the forum moderator to confirm that it is acceptable to post actual correspondence from B and O and if it is, the actual correspondence will be posted.

moxxey: Razlaw: An upgrade may or may not be needed to enjoy True HD and DTS Master. There is a somewhat lengthy, I think somebody actually called it epic, thread here discussing the issue. Razlaw, I don't think that 'added' to the conversation. Hence my irony in the previous comment. Please do not tell potential BS3 owners that it supports

martin01: Hi soundproof, What you are writing about PCM-downconversion regarding Panasonic BD50 will also be for Sony S-500 and Sony S-550. I have read those manuals my self. So we have to be satisfied with 48 khz. But BR-titles which are mastered in 96khz will in fact sound more dynamic than BR-titles mastered in 48 kzh, even if all output from the

Puncher: To reiterate what was mentioned earlier - "Uncompressed PCM" does not imply HD audio - I could give you an audio track sampled at 11KHz using an 8 bit converter - it will be uncompressed and it will be PCM but it certainly won't be HD. 16 bit 48KHz isn't what I would call HD either, it is the "standard" sampling

Sounds very ' openminded'

Enjoy your new purchases!

soundproof: There is no direct connection between the designation "uncompressed PCM" and your assumption that this is HD-audio. I have shelves full of classical concert DVDs with Uncompressed PCM two-channel soundtracks (standard on DG, among others), in addition to the 5.1 variations. The uncompressed PCM you are getting, according to your

To paraphrase Sherlock Holmes, when all alternatives are eliminated, whatever remains, no matter how unlikely, must be true. The only explanation for the displays, connections, and settings is that the BS3 does in fact output HD sound, just as my dealer says, just as somebody in this thread says a B and O engineer says it does, and just as every single
