Harry, isn't it true that you said that the Pioneer universal player
was
capable of showing the benefits of the SACD format?


Absolutely not. You obviously are letting your opinion of me get in the
way
of what I've said....at least three times on usenet, including RAO. SACD
is
the weakest format played by the 578a. It's conversion to PCM destroys
the
ambience readily available on native DSD decoding players


How ?

The same way turning on speaker compensation within the Sony C222ES and
C2000ES do....when put through the DAC as PCM, they loose the ambience that
otherwise is on the recording...it is clearly noticeable on a recording with
true hall ambience. This isn't theory...it is reality and widely
acknowledged (note that I am *not* saying every machine that uses PCM to
decode SACD does this...only that these specific ones do).
