I use Audirvana Studio and apply both parametric EQ and Sox upsampling. Highly recommend and I love the android app which works flawlessly and is well designed.

So after sitting on the digital fence forever. I got tired of waiting for the innuos pulsar and pulled the trigger on a Lumin U1X. It apparently has inbuilt upsampling of some sorts. However iam sure it can't come anywhere close to what a HQ player can do.

Besides my dac is limited to DSD56 via USB. So will give that a spin once iam home and will report back.

@newlash09 I'm sure you will enjoy the Lumin, I recently purchased a Lumin U2 mini and it is very good. My only complaint, you have to use cabled connection to your router, although most would say this is the best way to go.

Thanks sir 😁👍... Did you try any internal upsampling by any chance.

That's a first rate purchase there, nicely played.

I'm not sure if you are talking about the same sort of thing I have at present which is a Sky wifi extender, I have connected to the Lumin via ethernet cable since it doesn't have a wifi connection.
Yes, it's a similar thing.
