In Reply to: Yes, I prefer DSD to 16/44 Redbook... posted by John Elison on October 26, 2014 at 19:27:24:
I like DSD as well. On many recordings it seems to open the sound up a bit more.
I've always thought 16/44 was a pretty borderline spec for hi-fi. It's created a lot of unnecessary headaches as encoders and players have slowly improved to overcome its side effects.
