I don't know about MB but I have verified using an external AV receiver connected to an MBP and an iMac by S/PDIF that if you select 44.1 or 48 or 96 kHz in SAM panel then this is the sample rate arriving to AV receiver. Both my MBP and iMac use Realtek HD circuits, perhaps MB too. I've been unable to verify number of bits because this isn't shown on my AV receiver's status display but I would be surprised if the number of bits isn't what you select. Note that S/PDIF sends always 24 bits even if not all of them are used.

Then there is a matter what various applications do and don't. Watch out for iTunes that has very strange behaviour in this respect.

On my MacBook it has sample rates of 44100, 48000 and 96000 hertz with bits per channel of 16, 20 and 24. Are all of those settings native to the device or is there some conversion going on.
