Both the Qutest and Hugo TT2 have a 10 element pulse array design...
The Qutest has 49,152 16FS WTA 1 filter... The Hugo TT2 has 98,304 taps... Dave has 164,000 taps and a 20 element Pulse Array... The MScaler takes either the Qutest, Hugo TT2 or Dave up to 1,015,808 WTA taps...
There is some software available with/for Roon that can Upscale similar to the MScaler called HQPlayer... I think there is a free trial for it... Although not exactly the same filtering as WTA it might give you a sense of what a bunch more taps might sound like with your current DAC...
Also, if you can do a little software building there are mods to SoX and FLAC which allow similar upscaling and filtering capabilities for free...
Other non-Chord DACS will not have the same timing precision which may or may not be a good thing depending on your ear/brain/system/room... Good luck in your quest...
