I bought a Behringer SRC2496 which arrived this week. I haven't had a whole lot of time to play with it; so this morning, I thought I would burn it in a bit by running a signal through it so it's all nice and warmed up when I get home.
For this purpose, I fed it one of the Internet radio stations off Slim Picks. The Behringer was set where I last left it: 24 bit / 96kHz upsampling. But what actually is happening here? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe Internet Radio streams anywhere near the CD standard of 16 bit / 44.1kHz, so what benefits am I getting by upsampling the radio stream? Wonderingly, - VD -- Videodrome Two-channel System: SB3, into Musiland MD-10 DAC; Outlaw 970 Pre/Pro; McCormack DNA-125 amplifier; Quad 11L speakers; Sota Sapphire ttbl. w/ Grado Ref.
