Pioneer dv414..upsamples to 24/96???

Is the analog output a result of internal upsampling to 24/96 on the Pioneer dv414??? Thanks in advance! Ricky

I understand that it will pass a 96khz signal via its digital outputs if it is detected, otherwise, it passes 16/44 (or 48). May it be that the internal dac only converts to 24/96 if the source disk is formatted that way, otherwise, out comes 24/44(48)?

Only the digital output is 24/96 because of the DVD specifications. You'll need external DAC with the 24/96 capability to get the hifi analog output.
