As purists would say - upsampling should never sound better..
However two months ago I got AK4493 I2S DAC /Rpi3B+/ and I've been playing with SOX resampling since.
Final result - now I upsample eveything to 32 bit, 384 kHz, Stereo (SoX medium quality)
Not the purists way, not the audiophile way - but I am just sure that it sounds better, richer and thicker to my ears. I am also sure that there are 'artefacts' but what I hear is more positive as whole experience than negative.
Cheers to SOX and Moode audio!
