Do I have to get a CD player to sample DSD on my digital rig?


I have Innuos zenith mk 3 (pcm) and T+A DAC 200 (which will play both pcm and dsd).  Some say dsd is better than pcm. I’m running Qobuz and it sounds really good. Just wanted to sample the dsd if possible.

Was there any mention in the previous threads about copying tracks?  The OP expressed a curiosity to hear DSD but nowhere stated he intended to rip anyone off.

  Which segues to another point about DSD, which is that the software (SACD) or the downloads are premium priced.  The downloads also are big files so make sure that you have a lot of storage.

  I have some DSD downloads but most of my DSD is on SACD, which I output from my Oppo 105 into the HDMI input of my Bryston DAC.  Some of the recordings are truly outstanding, close-eyes-and-musicians-in-the- room experience.  However a poorly recorded file won’t be rescued by DSD.
