Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion HiFi & HT Chat Setting up a 568.2mm for multichannel lossless audio (Was Edge powerbuy)

Sorry about that George, I meant to say Thank you Mike.

The 568 is working very well. I had to configure my HTPC because the 7.1 audio comes out of the HDMI on the video graphics card.

It is interesting that the display on the 568 reads PCM Mus6 96K when connected to my HTPC.Does this mean that the 568 is trying to process or upsample the audio to 192k? From what I understand the 568 can only do 96k max. I probably need to reset it back to 48k.

Here are my preliminary results: Mind you it is 2 a.m.in the morning.

After watching IRobot-DTSma, Parts of Hancock-dolbytruHD, Parts of Spiderman 3, parts of Seven Pounds, Black Hawk down and scenes from Eagle Eye, the Edge has certainly improve the over all audio and video of my system. This is more than a subtle improvement.

I asked my wife Velma what did she think about my new toy I just got for my 56th birthday and 32nd wedding anniversary, I got married on my birthday, and she said very quickly that it was clearer.

I agree with her because it seems like a veil has been removed from the audio.

The seperation of each channel is more distinct and more realistic than before.

The subtle noises or nuances of the environment or background are more audible.

After a shaky startconfiguring the 568 for MHR, so far I am very happy with the modified Edge.

as far as the video goes, the picture on my HDTV was already very good because of the Furman Elite power conditioner and the OYaide R1 electrical outlets connected to a dedicated line.

Right now I am sitting about 20ft from my Mitsu 73" DLP watching IRobot as I type this and the picture is awesome. The edge has given it more of what it already had i.e. clarity, detail and depth of color.
I think the improvement is accumulative, with the Edge becoming a larger variable in the equation.

A friend of mine has already ordered and paid for a modified Edge and based on what I hear and what I see he will be very happy.

I just need to get a manual for the Edge from Gary to better understand the different functions

I will answer any questions based on my opinion of the modified edge.

Question: When my HTPC blu-ray is processing DTSma or Dolby truHD, how will I know because I didnt see a display of the DTS logo when IRobot was playing.

thanx
