We LOVE the custom Fidelizer Nimitra. We run Roon to HQ Player on the MacBook Pro, then ethernet to Nimitra HQ Player NAA. We upsample PCM to 88khz, unless it is higher res, and upsample all DSD to DSD 128. With the PS Audio DirecStream DAC 24-88 khz sounds better than 24-176 or 24-192. We gave up on the Playback Designs Merlot, the PS Audio sounds more like real music, more full bodied and less clinical, but with all the details.

The Denafrips Terminator DAC will accept DSD 512 so things may change tomorrow!

All the best,
David Levinson
