# A: First, you shouldn’t use resampler at all, unless you can tell the difference between resampling being enabled and disabled; resampler is a resource hog and the differences on normal music are very small and virtually impossible to notice (only certain “test signals” such as udial.wav may sound obviously different, but nothing like that occurs in real music). If you really have to use resampler, resample to 48000Hz 1) and use fastest settings. You don’t “gain quality” by resampling to higher samplerate, it’s just like stretching a picture to display it on a higher-resolution screen. You will be most likely able to “play” 96000Hz samplerates on whatever card you have, but samplerates unsupported by hardware will be downsampled by to e.g. 48000Hz before reaching your soundcard.

Sorry must be my sensitive ears.....
