    Am setting up a Dragonfly Red on a laptop and came to this stage and unsure which one i should select,.
    24 bit 44100 Hz studio quality
    24 bit 48000 Hz studio quality
    24 bit 88200 Hz studio quality
    24 bit 96000 Hz studio quality also downloaded USB Audio Player Pro on my phone and having trouble with it but for now that's another story,cheers.

    p.s .
    When headphones are connected to the DFR and i,m listening to music vocals why then when their singing the letter S in a word is there a pronounced hissing noise to the S,gets pretty annoying.Now if i listen on my headphones via bluetooth to the same artist singing the problem is drasticly reduced to very little,it doesnt happen to every music artist that i listen too either,cheers..

    I think you talking about sibilance which is most noticeable in female vocals.

    Ultimately it's a problem with the headphone I feel. Turning up the tremble to high can make it worse. So you might mitigate it by truing the right treble frequency down. Google your headphone/s with the term sibilance and you might find an equalizer solution to it.

    Thanks for reply,this problem only happened since I started using the dragon fly red it actually got to a stage where five or six words together in a sentance would have the combined hissing noise too.I have since found out the above setting I was looking for is 44.1so I have it set to that,not too impressed with the DFR at all, maybe it's because I get a pretty good sound from the S momentum 2 oebt,s without it...
