  • MHz refers to the samples per second, not the pitch. CD audio for example is 16-bit/44.1kHz. What that means is there are 16-bits of sampling (audio) taken 44,100 times per second. DSD on the other hand is 1-bit samples taken 11.2 million times per second, this is referred to as DSD256. What that translates to is a digital wave that looks a lot closer to an analog wave than a CD does. It has nothing to do with the frequency of listening in this case.

  • How it’s implemented can vary, but you’re gonna take one of three approaches

    • Microsegmentstion - On a home network this is the hardest but ensures there’s no overlap
    • Separate VLAN - this is usually good if your router can support it and have multiple gateways for each VLAN. Your router can then restrict traffic. Unifi gear does this well and I use this set up to segment my guest and IoT traffic
    • Separate subnets - if your router doesn’t support multiple VLANs this can work, but you still need a router that supports it

    The latter two can actually work with an unmanaged switch as long as you tag your vlans correctly. The key is having a router than can handle it.
