Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

Well, it is too good for some…

It's so obviously better, it sounds worse.
Anyway I don't need a 16/44.1 DAC, got a Sony XA7 as Transport into Mac C 2500 Preamp, and a VSE/Sony 5400, which is really excellent at CD, when I actually want to hear a CD.
Hirez PCM and DSD Downloads sound amazing.
No way I'm going to bother with 16 bit downloads or Streaming.
If I want Background Music, I'll use the Tuner.
As a lifelong Professional Musician and Amatuer Recordist, I can tell you that 16/44.1
just doesn't cut it!
How anyone couldn't hear that, I just don't understand.
There was a Quote in Stereophile or Ab Snd that this guy
" Doesn't Believe " HiRez is better than 44.1 PCM, on a Technical Level.
He hasn't actually checked it out for himself, he lets his "Belief " rule his thinking and listening.
You too?
