Ok - makes sense - I stand corrected.

Two questions:

1. On the 990, does input thru USB use the USB DAC or the regular DAC? I am guessing that it uses the seperior regular DACs.

2. When the computer is sending the PCM stream, is it sending at 44.1 Khz or at 48Khz? I remember reading somewhere that, by default, Windows OS send PCM data at 48Khz - some sound cards allow you to transmit at 44.1 Khz. Any info on this?
