Hi Rez digital to Benchmark DAC?


Hi folks - question for benchmark dac users.
I have a cheap universal player and am wondering if anyone has paired one with a benchmark dac. I know that benchmark is pcm only but it supposedly will handle up to 24/196. Has anyone found a way to feed it 24/196?
thx!

Interesting...
Better than redbook via what kind of playback? I still prefer the Ayre cx7e's redbook to wav files via the benchmark but I would love to assemble a computer based front end that would outclass it.
ok, so no point in 192. how about 96?

The reason is that (as always) I am trying to get the best sound that I can within my budget. I have a benchmark already. I thought that it would be interesting to feed it dvd-a somehow. Dosent look like there is a way to do it.
I have spoken with ps audio and do have my eye on the pwt and pwd but they really are out of my price range. The write ups on the ps audio site are very well done.
