The AES/EBU are simply wrong on this point - just as they are about pin 2 +.
Obviously, 3 is "higher" than 2. (;
As for Lavry, their DA11 can lock to a 200 kHz sampling rate, however, their
ne plus ultra DAC is still the DA924, which is stuck at sub 176.4 kHz Fs
rates. Also, none of their ADC's are able to encode at higher than 96 kHz
Fs.
