How is EMM DAC 2X?

Before everyone runs out to buy a DSD DAC they should read
this very
insightful perspective.

This analysis may change many minds. I performed this
comparison and
came away hearing and believing DSD converted back to PCM
and played
through a BNC/SPDIF connection instead of a USB connection
sounds
better. I believe audiophiles are better off buying the
best PCM DAC they
can afford and JRiver software to handle DSD file conversion
back to PCM
for the best playback experience. I own the EMM Labs 2X
DAC, but had I
performed this comparison, I may have delayed my rush to buy
a DSD
capable DAC. BTW, I own a Baetis music server and also
suggest
consideraton of it for playback; Baetis is designed for
audiophiles. P.S. I noticed when this is posted the full
link does not show up. Once at web site look for discussion
of DSD vs. PCM

Hifimaniac,
The designers of the 'Berkeley Audio Design Alpha Rerence DAC' and the 'Trinity DAC' share the same view regarding DSD converted back to PCM for playback, except the Trinity DAC's designer believes a properly implemended/optimized USB for playback is the way to go.

After reading Robert Harley's (The Absolute Sound) interview with Michael Ritter (Berkeley Audio Design) on the DSD implementation and playback, what Baetis is saying makes a lot of sense since it mirrors the views of the Berkeley Audio Designers.

I know I am reviving a year old thread, but I just want to say I bought the dac2x and it is spectacular.  I could end my source search now.
