La conclusion c’est:
So, with HQPlayer, use DSD FIR1 or DSD FIR disabled. DSD256 or DSD512.
At DSD512, even with aggressive 7th order modulators, there are no ultrasonic noise bumps at all.
Output voltage levels are the same for both balanced and unbalanced output connections, so doesn't seem to be a fully balanced design.
The built-in 8x oversampling filter is very slow roll-off / leaky type.
Cela peut peut être expliquer pourquoi on apprécie d’upsampler en dsd 256 ou 512 avant ces appareils, par HQplayer ou par un autre moteur.
Autre commentaire du papa de HQplayer sur le TEAC:
It is one of the devices where HQPlayer makes amazing performance improvement compared to the built-in DSP. Measures nicely with HQPlayer, and thus nice companion for HQPlayer.
Et la conclusion auditive:
What I've now listened through HQPlayer upsampling with my recommended settings, the overall character is quite neutral. Maybe gives slight "loudness" EQ kind of feeling with slight extra on low and high frequency ends. Otherwise I would characterise it a bit AKM chip style sonic character.

La hifi est femme. Imparfaite par nature, on la choisit pour ce qu'elle a, pas pour ce qu'elle dit avoir. Mais si on voit ses défauts avant ses qualités, on est pas fait pour en avoir une, mieux vaut se soulager sous la douche, en écoutant la radio.
