Most likely yes.
The poll currently stands at 67% Great, which I personally agree with. I just don't see any justification for a rant against a small minority of complainants, nor for antagonizing them and generally supporting incivility.
We need to consider the 44,100 Hz performance because a lot of the content is in this sampling rate. It has the right filter for higher sampling rates, but some consider it lacking specifically at 44,100 Hz.
I don't think this is correct. The sampling rate doesn't change the slight roll-off at 18 kHz. Higher sampling rates allow you to use a filter with a shallower slope without the penalty of imaging (because the image is further away from your audio band).
I did not quite say that. I literally confirmed what you just said:
And filter response:
Performance is the same. So the filter selection has no impact on SINAD.
This is the reason internal oversampling is used, due to filters being non-ideal.
Does the G5 use different filters for 44k vs. 44.1k sampling?
Emm, I'm not sure if you can even have content with a sampling rate of 44,000 Hz (vs. the standard 44,100 Hz). Even if you could, I wouldn't be able to tell you exactly, but I guess the behavior would be pretty close if not the same. You can always consult the datasheet of the DAC package used for more exact information.
typo-meant 48k as shown in your graph.
it should in theory, so I don't see the problem.
Oh, the relative difference of the chosen corner frequency [Fc] (usually 20,000 Hz but it can be any other if within Fs/2) and the stop frequency will increase (stop frequency will increase from 22,050 to 24,000 Hz if keeping a constant Fc of 20,000 Hz), giving you a filter with different results (different transition band slope, thus different transition band). This is possible, but I can't confirm this is the case. Most likely, they are using a filter depending on the input sample rate by using the different registers in the package, but I can't find an extensive ESS 9068AS datasheet to confirm.
People who mostly came to know of this device in this very thread are voting.
Thanks for your explanation. Since the corner frequencies in the 44.1k and 48k sampling graphs appear to be different, I'm wondering whether this is the same filter exhibiting different responses under different sampling rates, or the firmware specifically selecting different filters when the sampling rate changes.
telling people to shut up is hardly a sin. i have stated my reason. im aware of it being an action even with the very intention to try best to do as polite as possible would still end up being rude. but i have reason to do so as clearly stated & that's the best i can do, so i do it, simple as that. this action, however, while rude maybe, but, in fact, appropriate. the goal, ironically, was about trying to prevent some from saying more things that is actually inappropriate, unfortunately. this is, in nature, no more different than telling someone shouting in a library to shut up. maybe, just maybe, amir get the point you don't? just a little possibility, but it's a good place to start from, if you want to be able to tell what's actually unhinged.
antagonizing them? lol. did you read their writing? if anything, they're antagonized enough without anyone doing anything...
what does what you said have anything to do with my point? i never said the contest is about engineering. im completely fine with you, or anyone else for that matter, not rating this product highly or not agreeing with amir's assessment, as long as you based your opinion on facts, not made-up nonsense. different opinion can be formed due to different points of view, preference, needs, etc. you can say you dislike this product due to the filter choice, dac chip choice all you want, i can understand that just like i can also understand the reasoning of amir's assessment (in this case, the key being inaudible, amir's recommendation was never about higher number but audibly transparent or not, back in the days sinad around 110 is about the best it could get, those device still got highest recommendation due to being almost audibly transparent, other example being some device may not have flawless jitter performance but it is inaudible enough, he wouldn't dismiss them from getting his highest recommendation just because of that, same here, all but 1 flaw & it's inaudible. i see no inconsistency, even if there is, not a problem, people can change, mood can change, with that, viewpoint changes too. the data is consistent, all that matters. you can decide how you rate it based on that, no need to make baseless claim in addition), but if your opinion is baseless, like saying things such as gaming measurements, that topping deliberately choose this filter to somehow cover up bad engineering, or 'gain sinad performance' if you prefer that, when there isn't any to gain, & that's why you don't like it? then not only does your opinion offer no value, it is outright harmful, because it is based on false assumption & misleads people into not being able to form their own opinion based on all the facts. those are the ones i was referring to, not you... uh... nvm, just checked your post record, you did exactly what i mentioned, posting 3 of such comment previously on this thread, repeatedly. you're one of those i explicitly refers to. in this case i regret typing this reply as im done with you already after my previous post, nothing more to say to you. amir put it best, you don't have common sense. maybe try solving a problem properly in real life for once, it doesn't have to be big, just try doing it properly, then you can come back & decide whether or not you want to continue this conversation.
Or a bit of ripple...
