I'm not sure what position you are referring to in the subject line.I'm recording on the format I prefer (DSD) and when the project's released on SACD, I feel it's the best representation of what I recorded when played back on an equal system. I can't ask for more than that! I consider myself very fortunate to be working for a label that supports that kind of work.
There's no getting around the fact that lacquer masters and vinyl pressings have some technical "imperfections" that give the characteristics to vinyl playback that fans love. That's what I mean when calling the format "euphonic." I, for one, am happy to leave those characteristics to others to employ. I don't like those characteristics imposed on my recordings, and that's my preference. While I have a bit of influence in choosing the Telarc release formats, it's really not up to me ultimately. I'm really happy that our best stuff gets out there on SACD and in surround, though!
