I don't think so, because if you just go up to regular dsd, you just go up from ~ 2.3 to ~ 2.8 MHz data bandwith (and I'm not even sure, if those 2.8 MHz are entirely correct, because I haven't yet found proper insight into the DSD coding scheme...) - so you might end up with something that's more similar to crappy 48 kHz resampling of redbook audio than potentially beneficial 24/96 or 24/192 upsampling.
And yes, it's about time you stoppen sniffin' that glue!

Originally posted by markl Couldn't an SACD version of a 24/96 recording essentially do the same thing? If you convert it to DSD, put it on an SACD medium, and play it back through a DSD/SACD DAC, is that similar to the effect of "upsampling" you get by playing 16/44.1 discs on a 24/96 DAC? In other words, since the DSD disc and the SACDP sample at such a higher rate than 24/96, couldn't it affect playback in a psychologically positive manner a la upsampling? |
