RE: Or this, from HDTT Website:

The DSD sampling rate is 64x that of redbook but the amplitude resolution is actually 1/32768 that of redbook. Multiply those together and DSD 512x worse than redbook - but at least it does so 'with astonishing regularity' :)

ps. DSD overcomes that deficiency by using a lot of noise shaping and so it does end up somewhat similar to 24/96 PCM - as shown in the picture posted by Roseval.
