all that means is that the SA-CD and DVD-A sections use a separate DAC. it doesn't mean that SA-CD is output as pure DSD. personally, i don't understand why it matters so much to you at this price point. while the Yamaha and other players in this range soud pretty good, i don't think any of them have a good enough analog stage for it to really matter all that much if they output pure DSD or not.

All I want is a player for DVD-A and SACD. Stupid closed minded mega companies. |
