DNR is digital noise reduction. I am not asking about that.

What I am asking is what audio system has the highest Max dB SPL and 
highest digital dBFS?

I want the audio system which has the has the highest SPL, dBFS and 
treble response. I don't like aliasing because it is annoying. I don't 
like clipping because it makes me feel sad. Clipping sounds like someone 
in pain. As a warm-hearted and compassionate individual I find such 
sounds to be disturbing.

So please introduce me to the present-day audio system which can handle 
the loudest and highest-frequency sound without distortion.
