![]() ![]() ![]() This results in the listener’s DAC using gentler and more phase linear filters for playback of the music. The sonic advantage to these new Stereo DSD 512 releases, as with all higher DSD bit rate releases, is the wider frequency passband prior to the onset of modulation noise. They are re-modulations of the original DSD encoding modulations. They are not up samplings, for there are no PCM or DXD conversions involved in their production. ![]() These DSD 512 releases are all pure DSD created, they stayed in the DSD domain using professional software from Signalyst.
