Audio Research CD6

I have been following an ARC CDP upgrade path for some years. CD2, CD3, CD3mkll, and currently CD5. I was excited to see upcoming CD6 until I saw the price and realized it has many features that are of no use to me. I was used to the slight price increase and nice improvement in performance, not this 50% increase and philosophy change. No complaints, it's their company and I'm still happy with CD5. I am curious though in what directions former ARC CD Player users are looking now that the former ARC upgrade path is no longer available. Thanks.

DSD now seems all the rage and the way of the future.

The ARC players and DACs don't do DSD.

I have a CD7 and I'm as pleased as punch and I have no plans to upgrade any time soon. However, should I upgrade to another ARC cd player, its DAC had better have DSD capability.
