That would require at least a dual trace scope that can measure up to 10Mhz analog BW so you can compare the data edges vs the L/R edges. Russ, can you propose other ways of determining?
When I was playing with a CDROM player, I remember getting no sound if the data format did not match. Since Mr Espley is getting distorted sound my bet is that the format matches. I am just guessing that sample rate mismatch will cause the distortion.

It actually more likely the format is wrong. Because if the sample rate were wrong you wouldn't get a lock at all. If the format is wrong, you would just some funky sounding stuff. :) The simplest thing to do is simply to rotate through the format setting and see if one works. :) Edited by user Tuesday, March 8, 2011 8:27:07 PM(UTC)

Good news. Problem sorted. After a bit of Googling I came across a similar project, Hirez SACD and DVD-A output from the DV575. Apparently, the output from the pioneer is left justified. I configured as follows AIF/MS 0 TXSRC 1 AIFCONF1 1 AIFCONF0 0 Many thanks for your support.:d/ Edited by user Thursday, March 10, 2011 4:19:10 AM(UTC)

Awesome. I was pretty confident that was the issue. Cheers!

Very good!. Leaned something new.
Jon, do you know the sample rate of the resulting PCM output?

I have to ask... why not tap the DSD signals and feed them to the DAC?

Transceiver update:
The circuit worked fine for a while, but I was never totally happy about the grounding being coupled to the DAC. Then one day I got a set of discs that were distorting on climaxes. I put a pulse transformer on the SPDIF output and problem was solved. In fact, all round sound quality improved.
