[QUOTE="croak, post: 439728, member: 361"] Itunes the music server software can run up to 16/48 With Audirvana afaik you can overcome this limit to play files stored with higher bit and sample rates like 24/96 Upsampling lower sample rate material will not bring back resolution lost in case of compressed formats. Some dacs may sound better with material in 16/44 upsampled by computer and others sound worse. The main reason for the add on software is to be able to play high res files above 16/48 an to create a lower jitter play platform for 16/44. The itunes store sells music in compressed format.
