So to my ears music that was originally mastered in DSD sounds best when converted to... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD DoP stands for 'DSD over PCM', which transmits DSD data via PCM frames. The original DSD data stream is then reconstructed from the data in these PCM frames, and the DSD data is converted into analog. | |
| Esoteric or CEC cd-transport If you don't have an external clock connected I would assume that the switch should be set to "int" for the internal clock to be used. | |
| Esoteric or CEC cd-transport I haven't seen that mod before either, but it appears to be an external clock input via BNC connector along with a switch to allow the selection of either the internal or external connected clock. | |
