Hello all,
Most of my library is ripped from CDs at AIFF 44.1 kHz sample rate - so essentially CD quality...
My question is, is it advisable to only stream to my DAC at the 44.1 kHz (CD quality) setting since this matches my source material? I have heard that up-sampling a lower resolution file buys you nothing and could introduce quantization noise. My DAC supports up to 24/192.
Any thoughts or suggestions on the matter?
Thank you.
Russ
