Since it's too hot today in my concrete box of a lounge for me to ingest
anything technical I thought I'd chuck out a couple of links I've had up
my sleeve for other people to peruse (& doubtless have a pop at, we
could do with a bit of controversy it's all gone a bit flat).
The first one is the
I wouldn't down-sample a high rate file. It's not always a good idea,
I'd leave it alone.
Under some circumstances, you might up-sample before sending the file to
the DAC, but this would only make sense if you knew you could up-sample
at higher quality than the DAC's internal up-sampling.

OK, sorry I

Would I be right in guessing you have a Mytek Stereo192?
I don't know how the display works on the earlier models, but the
Brokkly has a summary display

Morning Arny!
It must be seriously early in Michigan, so don't rush to reply to this

Having dug through all the stuff about the dimensions of King Solomon's
Temple in the user manual, I can't find a definite answer to this.

What makes you think it would? The network connection is a buffered,
bit-perfect path, and actually might pose less of a load on the

Sorry for missing out on the details.
Yes, I am using an older DAC with no USB and only up to 44.1 support.
Don't want to change my DAC. Just purchased and love it.
I thought that RPi3 with Digi+Pro would eliminate the connection of the
SBT to the server (RPi3) over the network. Thus, giving

Are you sure the Brooklyn doesn't still use a 22khz-ish filter even when
upsampling? I don't remember reading about that.
Do you always manually set your sample rate in the Brooklyn? I have one
of its predecessors and leave it to sync to input and I can't say I've
ever really noticed any
Morning peeps!
Having been (fairly) reprimanded for being frivolous on this august
forum I thought I'd make a concerted effort to be serious.
It has been mentioned to me more than once on this forum that I would
obtain as much audible satisfaction from the (relatively small
