DSD vs PCM .. Truth or Myth


Just been reading this article which raises a lot of points and questions.

I found it interesting at least.

Just think if SACD had been dsd128 and 5 bit? Might have been a lot more successful?

Having read the article about the Mystique R2R Ladder DAC I think I will stay with my MSB Platinum. It has a buffer clock to get the jitter down and upgraded R@R ladders I put in. For 5 channel SACD there is no other choice but a player with 5 or 7 analog RCA connectors. My OPPO NuForce will do for the foreseeable future because the only 4k opera discs are not offered with 10 bit video resolution and will be no better than blue ray on a Vizio screen which sharpens to 4k. This thread has settled things for me and I am thankful it was published here.
I can play files on my laptop over the MSB Platinum if I want so I need not spend a few thousand on a music server which is limited to 2 channels and appropriate for services with monthly subscription fees.
