@reo230 Very helpful, Thanks. Thinking of settings as filters makes sense as I used to own the Qutest.
M Scaler Dave settings question
I'm not sure how to read the M Scaler Quickstart Output Sample Rate (OP SR) Settings (page 4.5) for optimal settings with Roon/M Scaler/Dave.
I run Roon Nucleus Plus USB to M Scaler. M Scaler to Dave is BNC.
Dave settings are Double BNC 1/DSD Plus/HiFi ON.
The left column for OP SR settings in the Quick Start manual is SAMPLE RATE FREQUENCY with five ranges from 44.1-48kHz to 705.6-768.kHz.
My RH column would be DUAL BNC/USB.
Assuming my Dave settings are correct, what M Scaler OP SR setting/color is optimal, and should I change depending on source recordings?
F'rintance: I'm listening to a 44.1/24 bit recording in Roon with my Dave set to 705.6.kHz on the Dave.
Do I follow the 44.1-48kHz column to the 44.1 DUAL BNC/USB INPUT column to determine which OP SR setting to use - which appears to be WHITE if I read the chart correctly?
IOW the SAMPLE FREQUENCY column corresponds to the SOURCE data for a given recording on Roon.
Next question is about Upsampling vs Lossless in Roon DSD settings using M Scaler. Stay with Lossless or does Upsampling improve SQ with M Scaler Dave.
Thanks all and be safe.
