DSD (64) switches at 2.822MHz - compared to that 352kHz is low.
And DSD has to use a 7th order modulator to get acceptable audio performance, I am unaware of such a high order modulator for Class D Amplifiers (be they analogue or digital input).

They convert from digital to analogue in a lowpass filter, just like any DS DAC that does not use multibit modulators. And they use some form of sample rate and format conversion which can never be lossless.

Me neither... Expect perhaps in terms of what products are released and which are not.

At 20 bits, you are on the verge of dynamic range covering fly-farts-at-20-feet to intolerable pain. Really, what more could we need?
