[QUOTE="croak, post: 872463, member: 361"] Yip. My subjective observation was that I actually preferred the sound from a bespoke dac decoding 16/44 fed to an adc 24/96 input feeding the amplifiers dac vs that 16/44 stream feeding the amplifiers dac. Bizarre. My theory is that 24/96 is quite transparent to the superior retrieval of the bespoke dac and the amplifiers dac had an easier job doing 24/96 Thus, despite logic, a good dac may subjectively help a digitising avr in some cases. Maybe I just like more jitter and extra filters in the path. [/QUOTE]
