No, iTunes will not handle DSD files. AV+ will, and it will do so in iTunes Integrated Mode as well. But I recall that I didn't like the way it was handled. This was quite a while ago so things may have changed.
I'm surprised the ITunes Int Mode offers sonic improvement, can you elaborate?
I didn't say this. AV+ is what offers sonic improvements over iTunes. Using AV+ in iTunes Integrated Mode allows AV+ to perform the sonic improvements (along with a couple other cool features like 'memory play', disabling of unneeded processes, sample rate conversion, etc). BUT instead of using AV+ to manage your library and music playback, you use iTunes.
When I use AV+ with iTunes in iTunes Integrated Mode I will usually 'hide' AV+ behind iTunes set to full-screen mode. So my library management, library navigation, album selections, playlist selections, etc., are all handed through my interactions with iTunes. AV+ is handling the sonics.

Is that under A+ Preferences Itunes? I did not deactivate completely, but checked the two boxes below it.
It would be nice if they had a button somewhere in A+ preferences that simply said,"kill everything you don't need to play Red Book"!
You made reference to an Itunes integrated mode (perhaps I read it wrong). I run Itunes with A+ and A+ handles the audio and volume. I can select tracks from Itunes. I was wondering if I was missing something else in A+ preferences.
If you are running AV+ -AND- using iTunes to navigate your library and play tracks, then you must already have AV+ set to "iTunes Integrated Mode".
When you launch AV+, iTunes will automatically launch.

iTunes Integrated Mode? I'm not sure what your question is.
