For reference, I have my TV connected to the Wiim Ultra via an HDMI arc cable. The Ultra then feeds into a DBX processor/DAC via a digital COAX cable. The DBX then feeds into a couple of amps via RCA cables.
When I play a regular YouTube music video (not YouTube TV or premium) from my TV YouTube app, the data rate reflected on the the Wiim Ultra screen and app, seems really high....2304KBPS 24b-bit/48kKHz. I don't understand why the data rate seems much higher than a CD quality Red Book.wav file of 1411KBPS 16-bit 44.1KHz. I thought regular YouTube sound quality was quiet low...closer to 192KBPS...hard to say because they have their own codec? I notice the same thing on popular videos that review the Wiim Ultra. I'm sure I'm missing something and there is a very simple explanation. Can anyone shed more light on this?
