Tried DSD?


Has anyone tried some of the new DSD downloads off of the AS website yet? What DAC are you using to play these files? How do they sound?

"Tried DSD?"
This is the title, it asked a question.

It’s a forum sunshine and if @chatta wanted to express his opinion on what the title to this thread is "Tried DSD?" He has every right to without being told to "stay away" by the DSD police.

And then I have the right to express and back him up with this as well.

Georgie Boy,Thanks for the compliment :-)I am trying to understand your problem - is it English OR your comprehension. Read chatta's post again:
I remember reading a few years ago that high bit rate PCM was superior to DSD (from an objective perspective).
He is trying to reply to the OP based on what he read. Really? Hmmm...very helpful. Sure you should also do the same then for Class D amplifiers. Read up!

Dsd has nothing special for me, even with good equipment.

He already says that DSD did not do a thing for him. So wouldn't it be good for him to not waste money on buying more SACD/DSD stuff? Or do you still want him to buy more of that stuff and come here and complain.
And then I have the right to express and back him up with this as well.
Absolutely agreed. But if your back him based on his reading then I really doubt your credibility.
@georgehifi,Wow...what a come back! Look like you do believe that "reading" gives you all the experience you need - since you did not reply me on that.

I see your argument on the "High end Class D amps?" thread. Ralph may be a 50s guy. But he has all the experience building great amps. While you have none. Try to gain it by "reading" about Class D :-)))))

I've purchased an Analogue Productions RCA Living Stereo Hybrid SACD remaster 'Scheherazade' and it sounds great but I do not have SACD playback, so I'm just listening to the cd layer.

I've downloaded two DSD files from Native DSD and they may be the best sounding music files on my SSD.

Occasionally, I run into recording engineers and hifi manufacturers and  they unanimously view DSD to be nothing more than a shell, unless something was actually recorded in DSD. The problem with recording in the DSD format is that the recording needs to run start to finish without interruption. 

I own a Bryston BDP Pi/ linear power supply to an Ayre QB 9 Twenty DAC/ASR Power Cord  plus Akiko Audio XLR stick via Wireworld Platinum Starlight USB cable and Uptone Audio EtherRegen/LP1. Sounds great!
