So a part or all of what I wrote ("this") is sometimes not true? What
exactly did you mean by "this"?

Assuming by "down the signal chain" you mean "after the DAC output", I
don't see how any of my statements contradict the above - some at the
least imply the above. Please explain further.

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] convert.conf command conditional on incoming sampling rate
The below works on Linux. Not sure if it could be made to work on Windows. E.g. [flac] -dcs $START$ $END$ -- $FILE$ | [tee] /tmp/lms-track | ( sleep 0.5; if test $( [soxi] -r /tmp/lms-track ) -gt 48000; then bandwidth=74; else bandwidth=89; fi; [sox] -q -t flac - -t flac -C 0 - rate -v -b $bandwidth 110600 dither ) If the file has a sampling rate of over 48kHz, then use 74% bandwidth when re-sampling, otherwise use 89%. My actual convert.conf is much more complex than above, BTW. The above is strictly to demonstrate the conditional technique.

Meanwhile, over at -ComputerAudiophile- there's a 59-page thread on choosing the best linear power supply for your DAC. Thanks, Archimago; keep up the good fight!
