It's more than a possibility, particularly with improperly designed and
marginally stable "audiophile" electronics. Hence the variable low pass
filter fitted to a number of SA-CD players...


What's the highest frequency such filters allow to pass?

More importantly, what is the attenuation of such filters at 20KHz? And
if such filters are used, there goes the advantage of higher bandwidth
of SACD.
