Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: What a big disappointment; NAD M51 with OPPO 105d (long)

" No matter what source I feed the combination, 44/16 to DSD"

Not surprised that you didn't rate the M51's performance feeding it with DSD as it can't process this format. It does PCM only.

"the DAC reads the iPad signal as 48 khtz"

I have no knowledge of Apple products but I suspect that the DAC is displaying the "native" output frequency of the iPad. Does the i-pad downsample to its sound engine's highest rate? For comparison, in Windows when the sound engine is used, the maximum sample rate frequency is selectable and incoming data at less then this will be upsampled and incoming data higher than this will be downsampled. Maybe an expert on iPads could comment?
