"Forget About It - on the Rounder label. It is in fact DSD.
According to Stereophile tests, it is a 48khz PCM recording."Well, I guess that make Rounder a bunch of liars. Check the SACD jacket!
"You liked the Alison Krauss recording when you believed it was DSD - now that you know it's PCM, do you suddenly hate it? "
Hell no! I assumed that some of the wonderful quality of this recording could be attributed to DSD. I am actually happy to know that may not be the case. It offers me encouragement that non-DSD SACDs have the potential to sound this good.
But let me ask you this - why the hell would Rounder put a DSD label on a non DSD disc? Are you sure Stereophile didn't make some error?
