Hi Millemissen,

I have a pair of Beolab 5 from year 2009 and a BS5/BM5. I have connected directly with SPDIF-cable from BM5 to Beolab 5 and have played Hi-rez FLAC-files with 24-bit 96 khz. So the Lab 5 from 2009 accept 96 khz. I have also tried a FLAC-file with 192 khz but then there were no sound.

The tecnical specifications for the LAB 5 says up to 88,2 khz. But they CAN accept 96 khz. I have the latest software in my LAB 5 which is 3.2.

Regards
Martin S

What!?!? Avoid a thread on HD audio? Surely you jest!

Hi again,

Just a question about Beovision 11. Do you mean that the soundmodule in this TV just support up to 48 khz in sampling?

In that case it is really bad, because Beosystem 3-based TV:s support upp to 96 khz. Am I right?

I confirm what Martin is saying.

I have a BS5/BM5 combo from 2011 and a pair of BeoLab 5 from this year. You can play high-res files up to 96 KHz/24-bit, but there will be no sound if you try to play 192 KHz files.

Hi Martin,

seems that you haven't been following these threads:

The BV11 supports 96 kHz according to Geoff Martin - (or at least accept it).

@ Martin & Vantage.

The DSP's in the BL5's are probably downconverting to 88.2 kHz before the DAC's are converting to analog.

And also 192kHz 24bit stereo PCM input

and 96kHz 24bit 7.1 PCM input

Maybe B&O should support the Cambridge Blurayplayer instead of the OPPO....

...advice people to let it upsample to 24/96 - and organize a replacement for those who have already bought the OPPO 👍

I guess, what Millemissen means is just, that those who can not hear the difference between MP3 and hi-res,  does not have to waste their time on this thread. And they do not have to make comments like: 'I can't tell the difference...' etc.
That debate has been going on in several other threads 😕
