Are high sample rates making your music sound worse?

Playback Design Up-samples everything to DSD then sends it to the analog section of the DAC, this applies to any file format.

If a DSD disc sounds better than disc X who cares whether it’s because of the DSD per se or because of a better mastering job? Hel-loo!

mzkmxcv This poster is an example of people who JUST DO NOT LISTEN, either to music or other people. 

Quite so, as he admits:

You don’t even need measurement gear, all you need is a program that loads the two digital files and shows you the difference between them

@tatyana69

I highly doubt it has the exact same measurements, meaning a full suite, not just frequency reponse and wattage. Even a high end brand like Mark Levinson cannot make the exact same amp, they all have minuscule deviations.

I listen, and I’ve never heard a difference with going to 24Bit or changing speaker wires (well, I admit nothing fancy like $5000 cables). Now, if you hear a difference, whose right? Well, since simple math and measurements shows that we shouldn’t hear a difference, I would argue I am.

All I get are responses like yours, and never any actual responses to my questions. If you think 192kHz is audibly different to 44.1kHz, I’d think you to explain why, when I bet you can’t even hear up to 19kHz.

@cleeds

Again, so are you saying when the audio in the digital file is the same they still sound different? As that’s what I’m talking about, compare the audio <20kHz for a 44.1 and a 192 file, and no differences will exist above -100dBFS.
