and perhaps where manufacturers onboard digital filters are bypassed by high software sampling rates or hardware re-samplers ?.
Some report the ES-90xx dacs benefit from being input DSD format.
The filters are in place to block ultrasonic noise. Modern delta-sigma DACs internally convert PCM into a DSD like format anyway and oversample even the max input sample rate by up to 64 times ot more. Have you never read a datasheet?
