Thank you for your opinion - and I suspect it is just that.
You appear to have an issue with the Beresford. My opinion is that

Any thoughts/opinions greatly appreciated.
Thanks

After years of just sitting on the shelf I decided my 1977 Yamaha

repair shop and they got the receiver back in fine working order for

Those vintage 1970s receivers are great. I've got a Marantz 2225 from
that era that I just had refurbished for a bedroom system. It puts to
share some of the newer stuff out there. And the thing will probably

Yes, increasing bit-depth is not re-sampling.
Increasing bit depth is a bit like changing currency. Let's say you
have a value in your pocket of 100 pounds. Increasing bit-depth is like
