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 ?

Graham


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).


So why isn't it more widely acknowledged ?


It is. Often mentioned by reviewers, ordinary users on the web.


Where does this 'ambience ' go ?



Where did Cat Stevens go?


A mosque. Now answer the question!
