It gets filtered by an improved DSD filter to 705.6 kHz PCM. Then Hugo 2 treats it exactly the same as regular PCM.
I am actually very pleased by the sound of the new filter; but to do this I needed over 200 dB of attenuation, to ensure zero aliasing. I get identical measured performance on the analogue compared to the original DSD64 test tones measured digitally; so performance is totally limited by the DSD itself, not the analogue conversion.
Hmm? Interesting to know that HUGO 2 plays DSD as PCM.But the question was about native DSD 256,not DSD 64, wasn't it?
I read your answer as responding only regarding DSD 64?
Are there really no measurable differences between DSD 64 and higher DSD sampling rates like DSD 128/256 and the latest DSD 512 in your opinion?
I have been told by those who record at DSD 256 that the higher the DSD sampling rate the further away from 20khz you send the infamous DSD 64 noise.
And also gain an increase in resolution?
Is that misinformation?
For those who raise a red flag whenever I ask a question that might be misunderstood, FYI ,I do so only out of curiosity and the wish to know as much as possible.
And have as correct information as possible.
