So that would be the Chinese WinChipHead CH552. You have surely vetted the firmware, but what about the hardware? I understand that for some people this is an agitating stance and question to ask, but it's after all a security-focused

He doesn't know how his "righteous" Android phone works either. It's the leading premise of his entire article. An iPod Shuffle costs very little and there are open source tools for putting music on them outside of macOS

However much I love DIY electronics (in particular audio/synthesizer-related such) this just seems like a contrived solution looking for a problem. Help yourself out by getting a cheap iPod Shuffle, or a reasonable facsimile of whateve

Yes and no. Reconstruction filters are part of the problem (and part of the solution) but it's not all about them.

A 44 kHz sample rate guarantees accurate 22 kHz triangle wave reproduction if a reconstruction filter with linear interpolation is used on the output, and accurate amplitude of same signal if samples happen to align somewhat with the peak

I doesn't look like you understand what sampling is, and how reconstruction filters in DACs work. Your statement is true for some waveforms, depending on their frequency, due to the use of reconstruction filters on the output, but it

The filters do linear interpolation between samples. This bridges some shortcomings of a sample rate too low to capture complex waveform at high frequency, but it's not a silver bullet.

It's true for a triangle wave and a square wave, depending on if the output has a reconstruction filter doing linear interpolations between samples. You cannot accurately sample a 22.05 kHz sine wave (or any other "complex" w

You can absolutely hear the difference between 44.1 and 96 kHz sample rate. Even with typical reproduction filters on the output, sampling at 44.1 kHz prevents you from accurately preserving e.g. a sine tone at above ~6 kHz, and that'

For personal relations I will maintain that it's always better to be clear and give a straight yes or no. Nobody likes being left hanging in uncertainty, and nobody likes people who always do that to them - people who cannot even pro
