I have a rather specific tech question to ask the net.

Does anyone know how strictly Sony's DAT machines adhere to the 
AES/EBU (American Engineering Society/European B.U. something) 
standards when receiving AES digitally encoded data?  

I want to design a computer interface that will send the DAT machine
AES/EBU formatted digital audio.  I would like to avoid generating the
"status block" codes that are embedded in the audio information, but 
I am unsure whether they really can be omitted.  

Is there a Sony technical info phoneline?  I've heard they have a 
consumer hotline, could someone tell me what either of these 
numbers are?  Thanks to all.
