There is the optimal and the best format HRx.I believe there is even better PCM, that’s DXD but you need a good R2R based dac to extract the best from it, not a DS based dac (that will do SACD which is flagged DSD)

SACD or not
I have a question regarding SACD format. I am looking to replace my CD player and noticed some CD players have the ability to process SACD and some do not. I have never heard this format and was wondering if I should consider this in my purchase. My purchase price is in the $1400 range
I know people will question why I am using CD at all. That is another discussion for another time. I still like some physical media in my listening experience.
I look forward to your comments

Redbook standard is 16/44.1. What is hi-res Redbook??Thing like the cd’s from the "Reference Recording" label, which is 25/96 redbook pcm also DXD. And they do sound superb, if you have an R2R multibit dac that can do up to 24/96 decoding, eg: any dac with PCM1704 nearly all discrete R2R multibit dacs like my MSB. Holo, Denafrips, ect ect Cheers George |
