and with enough exposure to a device, one can come to recognise patterns (something the brain is good at) to a greater or lesser extent. The patterns my brain recognises with bitstream technology tells these ears, at least, that those patterns are not for me.Using the analogy of film, those aspects of a design you mention do a great deal to shape the 'treatment' of a film or content. But the 'narrative structure' would be determined by the main protaganist or voice - the DAC.
If the narrative structure is satisfying, the 'story' told by the DAC (of the music and performance at hand) will be satisfying. If the story is jumbled, out of place, badly weighted, missing key ingredients and detail, then no amount of fancy camera work, art design, production design, superstar directors or DOPs will substitute for the defective heart of the tale.
I admit the limitations of the analogy, and am more than willing to audition new technology - including DS DACs in items like Avantgarde's Acoustic Zero 1 Pro - but know that I have a limited time on this earth, at this time, and with a all-too short a time remaining of decent hearing with which to enjoy the music available to me. I think my choices are reasonable, but enjoy seeing others make theirs, different as they are.
