A physical model of the head you mean? I did a similar suggestion in the past, with an additional idea: Include the ear canal in the model, and build in high quality microphones inside the head, with the membranes in the position of the ear drums. So you can measure at the position of the ear...- sander99

Sound Science thread for songs you can't get out of your head
Here I see "video is not available" with this link, so I watched this one instead: (What is the title of the song in your video, bighot?)- sander99

Can you hear upscaling?
I won't waste my time looking at that video. There exist audibly transparent (audibly perfect) DACs for very affordable prices. Once you have such a DAC you don't need a better one, audibly better than audibly transparent is impossible. Furthermore we know that Rob Watts sometimes says the most...- sander99

Frequencys/Songs with "effect" on the human body
I already have that with my Smyth Realiser A16 using personal PRIRs and HPEQs, and also using (free) HeSuVi with my personal hrtf based preset (extracted from my A16 using (free) Impulcifer, of course a direct measurement with Impulcifer is also possible then you don't need an expensive A16...- sander99

As VandyMan said, unrelated to the problem. The automatic volume lowering is triggered by digital clipping and has no relation to this manually set maximum. No. If the PS5 output was lower then the digital clipping would start at a higher (digital) volume setting of the A16 but at the same...- sander99

That is correct. Yes. @mei09891: I also recommend to switch the automatic volume limiter on again, and never switch it off.- sander99

Hope this help you to explain Hi-Res music to your CD friends
Although this is almost certainly not what is happening here, still interesting: "AI deception: A survey of examples, risks, and potential solutions" https://www.cell.com/patterns/fulltext/S2666-3899(24)00103-X- sander99

I stopped reading posts after this. (Not specifically because of this, but because I am tired of it all). You are not a pain because of some weakness on ASR or here, but because you ignore many things and just repeat the same falsehoods. For starters: You pick a (simulation of) a broken DAC...- sander99

You are just making a silly diversionary maneuver. He is talking in the context of music files for consumers. And whether it's downloads or streaming or whatever is completely irrelevant. The point is that 192kHz music files for consumers make no sense.- sander99

The word oversampling is also commonly used for upsampling in a DAC. I am surprised, can it be that you don't know what NOS in NOS DAC stands for?- sander99

Of course it is an argument for our discussion because the reason why "Hi-Res" is useless for consumers is because nobody can hear the difference. Many, many people think they can hear the difference, but in a proper test they can not. So, did you do a proper test or... Oh, I forgot: Or maybe...- sander99

What do you not understand? That 44.1/16 is audibly transparent? Maybe you thought you heard a difference with "high-res"? Maybe you did a uncontrolled, sighted or not properly level matched listening comparison? Or maybe you inadvertently compared two different masters (or otherwise...- sander99

Now we can come full circle: Hi-res is not the correct word. But closely related to your question: oversampling plus digital filtering is very usefull for reconstructing the audio signal (because a simpler analog filter can be used), and that is why NOS DACs are obsolete! 44.1/16 is audibly...- sander99
