Well the David Gray has just dropped throught the door,and guess what? There is no precise info on the case, just the phrase 'Advanced Resolution Surround/Stereo' rather than the expected frequency/bit rate info. Still this is often erroneous. I was lucky enough to secure a copy from Play of the Verdi Requem, which was supposed to be 16 bit/44.1, but when I checked on the display, was 24bit/48kHz. It sure sounded better than CD, but I nearly didn't buy it when I read about the spec.
I'll feed back more in a few hours, as I was just about to join my 598 to a 568.2 - the new Meridian G series is leading to some sensational bargains!
