Russian torrent sites? Are you a troll, or just gormless?

Indeed. Audible (at enhanced levels) degradation of 'reverb tails' is an issue when there is insufficient bit depth ('resolution')...

The case for content moderation of subjectivist nonsense on ASR grows by the day.

Much older than this thread, is testimony like yours being offered as sufficient evidence of sonic diffence between DACs. It's not.

I’m a strong believer in one rule. If you like it then it’s good (for you). The logical consequence of all these other rules is that...

I am happy not to have the 'purist' mindset. Is seems Dr. Toole doesn't either. I want the audio product that is delivered to me to...

If you're talking about -100dB levels of noise or deliberately incompetent signal production (e.g., non-dithered)... yawn. If not, could...

So do we in the non pro audio world. It's hard to avoid them. At what playback level do you listen to reverb tails? Can you...

Surely 'good fitting headphones' aren't the only necessary condition.

Yes, and it was beside my point. Most people will never 'need' to add an upsampling step in their signal chains because if one is used...

i.e. pathological conditions. No one listens to audio that way normally.

Indeed. Many DACs already upsample at integer multiples (typically 4x or more) before conversion. They do this automatically and...

:rolleyes: If you have constructed a Rube Goldberg signal chain that literally requires you to add a separate upsampling step, that's on...

But what it does is cancel crosstalk which is an artifact created by the way in which 2 speakers interact in a room and negatively...
