I have two questions and maybe someone can help regarding Lossless on macOS and the Qudelix 5K DAC.
1. The Qudelix is a 24 Bit/96 Khz USB DAC and I can choose in Apple Music between Lossless (up to 24 Bit/48 kHz) and High Resolution Lossless (up to 24 Bit/196 kHz).
Which should I choose for the Qudelix?
I read that it always upsamples to 196 kHz and that's bad or worse than the lower setting. Is this true?
2. No matter what I choose in Apple Music (256 AAC, Lossless or High Resolution Lossless), in the Qudelix app under "input -> state" there's always (!) Codec: Lossless, Sample Rate 96 kHz and Bits Per Sample 24 Bit.
The sample rate in the macOS system information is also always 96 kHz.
Why isn't this different when I choose different formats in Apple Music?
