Changing the DSD filter
The DSD filter is active when you are playing DSD files or upsampling PCM data to DSD.
If you are playing a DSD file or upsampling to DSD, and the level of hiss at the
output is high, your amplifier may not work well with wideband DSD signals. Try
setting the DSD filter to Filter 2 or 3.
