and so on.Until I got my VPI SDS and replaced my Krell integrated with BAT's integrated, I would have said SACD by a smidgen, at least for native DSD recordings.
Now, having done all that stuff, I'm not sure but what I'd go the other way on the question.
Fact is, I like 'em both . . . a lot!
I know, that doesn't help . . . assuming this is not just a troll.
There are significant differences between what's available on the two formats . . . so, if you really must choose, let your choice be driven by the availability of the kind of music that you like more than anything you might hear or believe about the technical merits of either.
It's also probably worth mentioning that, I've invested many times more $$$ in vinyl playback equipment than in SACD playback equipment. That, too, may make a difference.
