Re: Probably both.

What makes you say "... and hence sharp transient are softened or phase shifted?" It's a mistake to unquestioningly ascribe potential analog defects to digital.

The impulse response of DSD is cleaner and better defined than PCM at 44.1, 88.2, 96 and 192K...

Another (unsupported) hypothesis: non-linear distortion can also heighten polarity differences, perhaps DSD is more linear than vinyl and, especially, reel-to-reel. (I don't believe this, but it's probably more supportable than your statement :)
