From my experience, with the Transporter at least, The DAC seems to
like 24/96 files. I have experienced less noise, better staging, and

difficult one :)
This is out of curiosity, there are few sound engineers here on forum
so I thought they might shed some light..
Is it actually faulty mastering?
Which part of the process is responsible for this noise in the middle
of spectrum? Why on 22KHz? DSD has noise rising on above

Theres many threads on the Audiophile forums which testify to the
Transporter being a better transport...at least on paper - but not by
anything other than a small margin, but the conscensus (to my reading)
is that it is NOT worth the extra cost.
Some folk on these
It's suspiciously close to the Nyquist frequency for redbook (which is
44,100/2=22,050Hz).

I would just figure out a good calibration volume at the source. Use
the digital volume control of the squeezebox. This way it's easy to
write down the calibration levels of various DACs.

I think you are proposing using the Touch's digital volume control to
equalize outputs, but I would prefer to avoid that since this is
supposed to be for a test of sound quality so I really don't want the
Touch modifying the source. However, this gives me an idea:
Yes, but it is not upsampled content

How can you be sure? - looks like it is to me...

You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it
ain't what you'd call minimal...
