Many SACDs are made from PCM recordings.
I use Audiogate to Convert any File to DSD 128, sounds better than in PCM.
Many here do not believe that, which makes me doubt their opinions, or their hearing acuity.
Converting on-the fly works too, with HQ Player.
Original DSD Files would be great, but aren't necessary to enjoy there benefits of DSD Playback.
I've never heard a CD that sounded as good as DSD Playback.

Oh dear. You drank the Kool Aid. I guess you are have your fake DSD, so that DSD LED can light up on your DAC. They did a heck of a job.
I have heard many CD's that sound better than DSD. Did you ever think that your DSD playback chain is simply better then your PCM chain?

"I have heard many CD's that sound better than DSD"
That could have as much to do with the recording/mastering as with the digital format.
That said, if one were to posit DSD as the easier digital format to convert to analog, then it MIGHT make sense to convert PCM to DSD before said conversion.
The fact that both you and I feel the need to reach all the way back to the late 90's for a DAC chip technology we find suitable for the conversion for PCM to analog might be a good argument for that point.
