Sony DVP-S7700 DVD Player
More on 24/96 output question
I have been considering this player (though am having troublelocating a dealer that has one in stock), and have learned somethinguseful about the fact that the player downsamples its digital output to 48kHz.  There is a company called MSB that offers a factory-installed modification that returns the digital output to 24/96.  <br />I do not work for this company and am not getting paid to post this message.  On the contrary, if anything, it is good for Amazon and Sony at the bottom line for customers to know that there is a &quot;fix&quot; available for Sony's ill-advised decision to downsample output.  If I didn't know of this myself, I would probably pass on the Sony player for this reason.  For those interested, information about the modification can be found ... by searching MSB on the Web.  Sorry I can't give you more details.
