A good taste of DSD--what is your experience?
Glupson, you may be right! Great work.

Let’s stay focused on the subject at hand! :)thanks to the above referral to Blue Coast records!!!

That's correct--Apple doesn't support DSD. So, if you have a Mac you have to use third party software to send the DSD file to your DSD-capable DAC.  I'm using Colibri ($5 software) as I had trouble getting the popular Jriver to send the DSD in ful...

Ivan, thank you. You have really helped give me some knowledge to work with. I knew AMTs existed but have never confronted one. I like learning about what I don’t know.
