Any Camelot Arthur Owners out there?


I recently switched from an Audio Alchemy setup to a Camelot Arthur 3.0. I'm wondering if I can get some opinions on jitter filters. I'd like to use one that will accept incoming digital from my DVD player, so Audio Alchemy DTIs don't work, or so I believe. Can you folks suggest an appropriate jitter buster?

Thanks!

I'm not concerned about the ability to pass multichannel signals to the Arthur - this is strictly for 2 channel playback. My DVD player downsamples to 48khz at the digital out if I set it to do so, and the Arthur will process it. So perhaps a DIP will work, provided it will not have the issues they used to have with not locking on to a signal for the first few seconds of a song.
I don't think it's a issue of downsampling to 48hz, but the difference in the way red book PCM code and AC3/DTS compressed formats code are decoded.

I would definately check with Mel or Howard to see if your Arthur 3.0 can accept the AC3/DTS compressed formates and processes them.

Let me ask this - I am primarily using the DAC for playback of music DVDs, Diana Krall, Nora Jones, Sting, etc. I don't buy any DTS DVDs. I'm running all of this in to a SF Line 1 SE and Threshold amp. Strictly 2 Channel. I've watched numerous movies in 2 channel using the DAC with no problem. But what is AC3? Isn't that an LD format?

Thanks again!
I just spoke to Mel at Camelot and he said unless your 3.0 has the 24/192 Anagram upgrade it will not play the AC3 dolby digital or DTS tracks, but is instead playing the 2 channel PCM tracks off the DVD's.

AC3 and DTS are 5.1 surround modes.

Give Mel a call ASAP, I just spoke to him at 10:45 he can explain it much better than I.

His # 213-357-8356 extension 4. The phone number on A/gon web site is Camelot's Fax number. Use the number I listed here
