RE: Well One Month In and DSD is a Total Bust for Me

Although each DAC can be different in sound between PCM and DSD, I don't think most people who have tried A/B testing would say that DSD was ever a massive upgrade. There are fanboys for everything of course. In fact, I think those of us who do conversions between SACD to PCM appreciate that the process is essentially transparent with good software these days...

Given how many DSD/SACD albums are basically upsampled PCM sources of standard resolution (see my link below), one has to be vigilant to check if the recording originated as DSD to begin with.
