RE: How Come No PCM to DSD Stand Alone CD Players Yet?

Digital Drive

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

The bigger question is, how many new stand-alone audio only optical disc players do you see being released? Almost none, just a few at very high prices. The problem isn't so much a lack of PCM to DSD support as it is a lack of optical disc audio playback support in general. Video disc players would seem a likely place for PCM to DSD conversion support, except that the video playback focused market is none too concerned about DSD audio. DSD is only an interest within the audiophile niche market.
