Or when he bought the lowest priced SACD player available


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.


Here Harry shows his ignorance of technology by claiming that DSD somehow
reproduces audio better than PCM with the same or better bandwidth and
dynamic range.

BTW, DVD-A's 24/192 and 24/96 coding easily whips SACD's butt on both
counts, since SACD trashes dynamic range above 20 KHz. If I wanted to split
hairs, I could say that 24/48 has more dynamic range than SACD because of
its extension to 24 KHz.
