[QUOTE="AlleyCat, post: 1081250, member: 2194"] Lanties, sorry haven't got to the DSD test yet. I have a fair amount of SACD's , a good number of Dsf/Iso/etc, content, however my collection of files below 24/192 is much larger and although I have an excellent usb cable, I still prefer my coax digital set up. The physical PT and having to create a space for my laptop just to access the Hi-rez files is imho not really worth it. To impress some friends yes, long term, not. I can easily live without it - 16/44 - 24/192 is ok by me, and like you, vinyl still has a big spot to fill. I still use my Meridian cd player/transport when the need arises and I don't even have a streamer anymore. Will still do the test though (as it's interesting and I'm also curious). Lastly, as you also concur, this dac generates great sound and I have not let any of the "distractions" of the measurement brigade get in the way of my listening pleasure (name an awesome product that one cannot find fault with? Not heard of). [/QUOTE]
