Hi Tim, thank you for you feedback.
I ran this command and the output was
Card 0, ID `b1', name `bcm2835 HDMI 1'
  Device 0, ID `bcm2835 HDMI 1', name `bcm2835 HDMI 1', 4 subdevices (4 available)
    1..8 channels, sampling rate 8000..192000 Hz
    Sample formats: U8, S16_LE
    Buffer size range from 80 to 131072
    Period size range from 80 to 131072

The sample format S16_LE indicates the maximum 16 bit, it is correct? So this is the higher sample rate supported by the Pioneer Receiver, correct?
Thank you in advance.
Pedro
