You know like Tape and Turntables, the performance of CCD devices can only be described as very crude yet they sound more realistic them PCM 215KHz...
I'd like not to be biased, but based upon experience I believe the MDAC2 DSD recordings will be closer to the original... but there are many "blind" tests ahead.
I'd like to know if we can improve upon PCM performance - certainly the optimal transient filters of the MDAC are an example of trying to get closer to the original with PCM - but they very much have there own limitations.
Hi John,
In light of this debate, this site may be of interest: http://www.ayre.com/insights_dsdvspcm.htm
DSD & PCM files recorded with the same equipment available for comparison.
Cheers,
