USB noise filters
Not snake oil if you have an issue! Nothing to do with the digital signal (obviously) but you can get ground loops which will introduce audible RFI noise to your analog ins/outs.

most of the music gets played through quelle horreur an Amazon Echo Dot
that would annoy me.
but then again, right now i'm happily listening to Fip Jazz which iirc is 192kbs, on a Rauk R2 mini thing. There was a time when that would annoy me.
Just played an Oscar Peterson track - sublime.

I took 200 odd of our CDs to Oxfam the other year as I simply wasn't picking any of them off the shelf to play (and they were mostly dreck). We probably kept 40 or so that we really didn't want to part with, still rarely play them.
Despite a strong hi fi heritage (which is why I lurk in this thread) I've got no recognisable hi fi system at home, there's a shit Sony mini system in the sitting room under the telly and most of the music gets played through quelle horreur an Amazon Echo Dot via Spotify, to be fair, it's mostly just radio, Baby Shark, or songs from Moana. All in glorious mono. I've got various bits (NAD 5440 and some random amp and speakers, etc) in cupboards around the flat but neither the time/space/need/inclination to sort it all out.
I think I'm blessed with sub-average quality hearing.
Loving the USB noise filters and digital signal balancers chat. Good to see that degrees of snake oil lives on in the digital world.
