+1 Try more current LMS and player fw ! ( if it/was a bug it could have
been fixed ages ago and everyone have already forgot about it ) ,
I have no trouble running 48khz or 96khz or 44.1 or 88.2
What are the file formats involved ? If you haven't try flac , this is a
good baseline and no weird

A lot of old-school audiophiles don't understand digital technology, but
still apply their analog-age beliefs to digital.

You might be right. The National Science Foundation stated that
pseudoscientific beliefs in the U.S. became more widespread during the
1990s, peaked near 2001, and declined
Good times and we're all in agreement :)
But.
The one-liner scientific argument (Nyquist) doesn't carry through to the
end (the analog outputs of Your DAC). While Nyquist is a very nice
result, its theoretical and for practical purposes, non-constructive. So

will only invoke lots of nasty comments because the simple fact is that
regardless of the DAC and the audio system used the sonic differences
between that DAC and the Transporter's analog outputs will be, at best,
subtle. Please leave all the hyperbole and the greatest

So given modern studios the CD's or downloads is a mathematical exercise
so imo it is close to the theory
Maybe, but you can't argue that by referring to (only) Nyquist - the
main point of my first post.

Definitive is a strong word, but how about maybe...?
Usually, but not always, and by who's count - oh my head hurts :)
That begs the question - suppose there

I think you can. Remember Nyquist (or, more formally, the
NyquistShannon sampling theorem) states that If a function x(t)
contains no frequencies higher than B hertz, it is

in reality no clock does 1/(2B) perfectly so the actual nyqkvist
frequency may fluctuate slightly so in practical implementation you
leave a little slush margin.
Sure - engineering is applying the science in real world situations. But
that doesn't make the science invalid or

Yes i agree 100% and that extends to all laws of physics there is no

But I guess this is the point. There is some wiggly room in the
interface where science meets the real world. And I know, in the
sciences its usually controlled and abstracted using some kind of
error-model, but such error models can't be denied of being extremely

Neh :) Of course, a claim - wether positive or negative - presented
without argument is not worth a penny. But this just resolves into what
constitutes an argument. Here traditions vary depending on the science,
and I'm sure some audiophile story-tellers are in fact able to present
sequences
