I didn't mean to imply that DSD copies of LPs sound better than vinyl; they sound the same to me. What I meant was that some of the commercial DSD recordings I have sound exceptional -- as good or better than vinyl.
DSD seems to have more of an analog sound quality than high-resolution PCM, especially in the midrange and highs.
Best regards,

Follow Ups:
I thought there was absolutely no difference between an LP and a 44/16 copy. Are you saying you've found some improvement with DSD?
I even prefer DSD to vinyl. YMMV
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.
I'll have to be sure not to listen to DSD.
I'd like to think I'm done.

reelsmith's axiom: Its going to be used equipment when I sell it, so it may as well be used equipment when I buy it.
