Ehhh.
You need to actually start with a higher bit-rate recording. Upsampling a 44.1k file to 48k gives you nothing that wasn't already there.

You also need to make sure you're hitting -14 LUFS, with a true peak (not just a peak, but a true peak...which is calculated with intersampling overs) of -1 dBFS, for the absolute best results.

I actually learned this from Andrew Scheps...and wouldn't you know it...he was right (well..duh, right...I mean the guy has great ears).
