    I couldn't get past the Apple will only allow PCM paths... so basically they are ruining it for everyone! LMAO!!!

    Just kidding all you Apple people with your iTunes.... ha ha ha ha.

    Good read, I definitely think there needs to be a unifying "transport" for digital audio data at these higher rates so that everything basically outputs the same information then the flavoring is based upon the DAC more so than how you're outputting from a computer.

    Bill,

    Once I get you rolling on something you just dive in to the deep end head first don't you?!!?
    Digital Audio makes me Happy.

      Truth be told........

      Digital makes my head spin :rollhead:
      Analog just spins my LP's :W


      Then again, we could get into a discussion of Null Point choices and the virtues of Baerwald vs. Löfgren alignment.

            Charles Hansen's 20-points re DSD
            by wkhanna
            I asked Mr Hansen if i could share his thoughts on DSD that he posted elsewhere.
            Here you go:


            1) The only reason the DSD exists at all is because the patents for CD were expiring. This had been a HUGE bonanza for Sony and Phiips as the royalty per CD was onl $0.07, yet...

            Classé SSP-800 & DSD?
            by wettou
            Will the Classé SSP-800 support DSD in it's original form?

            SACD is a two-layer hybrid disc, one layer containing traditional "Red Book Audio" 16bit / 44.1kHz CD standard so that the new disc can still be played on standard CD players and a second high-density layer,...

            DSD vs PCM on SSP800
            by Maverick71
            Having recently purchased an Oppo BD83NE, I can now enjoy a few hybrid SACD's that I own.
            The Oppo has the ability to output DSD or convert it to PCM through the HDMI input but unfortunately the SSP800 does not process DSD streams.

            I came across a few bits of information that referred...

            On the hunt for a USB to I2S/DSD device and here's what I found.
            by Hdale85
            So I'm in the middle of putting together a setup for my car that will be based on Android. The latest versions of Android support USB audio so I've been looking for a good way to get that audio out. Today I found this little device.
