Hi Ronnie. My bad. The apparent discrepancy between apodizing in the 808.2/HD621 and DSP speakers is odd.

To add to your comments, I agree with your interpretation. In a jitter-free world, apodizing can occur anywhere in the chain, but because it occurs in the same operation as upsampling, the best results are obtained by upsampling/apodizing as early as possible.
