Bottom line is that I don't see anything wrong with cleaning up the audio

lead to mind-blowing improvements is very poorly informed.

If you read what I actual said, the words "subtle" and "slight" were
prominent. Not the word "mind-blowing". Many solutions will work.
The quest for "high-end" becomes subjective, and may involve esoteric
concerns that will make little difference in the final sound. Note
above, I used that phrase "esoteric" concerns. Such they are, and
they have been argued ceaselessly for several years. They will not be
resolved with posts back and forth here.

There is substantial disagreement on all issues related to quality
sound production, and this thread reveals a good deal about that
disagreement.

The individual who started the thread asked about using a PC as an
audio source. Perhaps to summarize, it could be simply said:

Yes. Use your PC. It can sound very good. But how good it will
sound using a variety of components and/or alternate operating systems
you alone will be left to judge. Because no one else's opinion really
matters!
