Afraid not. The audio hardware of the Iyonix is 'hard wired' so the DAC
runs at 48k. If you set any other rate it plays out the data with an
interval of 1/48k between samples. When it keeps running out it just
'repeats' the last sample until it has some new ones 'arrive' from the
playing software. The result is a weird sort of phase-time modulation that
distorts the output.

If you play 48k 16 bit material it can work moderately well, albiet not the
highest of fi. But any other rate gets mangled. *Including* CDDA rate.

<sigh>

Slainte,

Jim
