Title: DSD-to-PCM multichannel downmix?
Post by: sdawson on August 24, 2014, 04:31:14 am

I'd like to buy some DSD downloads. On one of my systems I can handle multi-channel DSD (Oppo BDP-105D to Yamaha CX-A5000). On the other I can't (NAD M51 DAC). If I buy multi-channel DSDs, what does MC do when it converts those to PCM for the M51?

Thanks for any tips.

If you set MC to output 2 channels in the output format DSP, then it will be properly down mixed to stereo.

Ah, OK, thanks. That clears me to buy multichannel versions then!
