OPM ,Do you have a dac that is capable of playing high resolution files?
Depending on the dac if they are not capable they will either simply not play the file or downsample it to whatever resolution they are capable of.

I see your sig indicates Accountancy. My question is this: What is the collective noun for accountants?
Andrei
Answer: A column of accountants. He he!

I used to work for one of the Big Four and there was a joke about accountants doing the rounds a while back. I have forgotten the detail - probably just as well - but it related to multiple orifices to facilitate double-entry

I have my own small practice now, but when I worked for pwc had the t-shirt "accountants do it with double entry. Auditors do it with internal control"I used to work for one of the Big Four and there was a joke about accountants doing the rounds a while back.

That reminds me of a Government agency I used to have to work with in the North East (part of the then DHSS IIRC) called ITSA Longbenton - it really needs to be said out loud for best effect...

My favourite DAC's must be;
Audio Logic Co - 34MXL (I bet not many have heard of this one) current one in use.
Pink Triangle - De Capo (20 bit and 24bit filter modules)
Kinshaw - Perception DAC
All very good and would be happy to live with any of them.

DACs I have known...
Beresford Caiman
M2Tech Young
Audiolab MDAC
Metric Halo ULN-2
Resonessence Invicta
Notes:
The Invicta is definitely at the top of the tree, as it should be given the cost in comparison to the rest! Superb headphone amp and the SD card slot is very useful for comparing multiple versions of the same album - yes, that happens often here!
I've barely used the Metric Halo as it's in place in my (pretty much untouched) attic studio. May well be up for sale soon. But it's a lot of kit for the money, DAC and ADC etc.
The MDAC is absolutely superb for the price.
Beresford's Caiman: the gateway drug of the DAC world? Wonder how many others have started their journey there...
