You know I've been waiting for someone to bring up the "Empty Bits" argument . In my experience the only time that I've noticed any empty bit problems is when I was using a Musical Fidelity M1 Asynch DAC. I honestly don't know what to tell you why or how the JRMC upsampled files have worked so well for me,but they do. For a long time I tried to detect artificial "frequency contouring" & there very well may be empty bits at play here,but the only thing I'm noticing is how nicely extended the dynamic contrasts in my music seems to be (I have'nt come across anything that does'nt seem to belong in the music).
I can only go by,what works for me.(I was a bit shocked to discover how well things sound, given the fact that I'm using an NOS DAC. I read somewhere that the "sweet spot" for my Metrum Hex DAC may be at 24/176.4
so that is what I tried. It works)
