I agree with Stacy that support for 192mHz will be a long time coming, if at all, on Meridian gear. I believe Bob Stuart is on record that he thinks that 96mHz is overkill; that something between 48mHz and 96mHz is more than adequate. In fact, the 568 and 861 only upsample 44.1hMz material, i.e., your standard Redbook CD, to 88.2hMz. Only 48hMz material is upsampled to 96hMz. Meridian likes to keep the arithmetic simple, i.e., doubling the sampling rate, rather than upsampling 44.1hMz to 96hMz, which would introduce rounding errors. If he thinks 96hMz is overkill, I doubt he is going to spend a lot of time (not to mention DSP horsepower and bandwidth) on 192hMz.
