Based strictly on subjective listening AND with the lack
of the identical title in DVD-A and SACD to compare
them against, bith somewhat limiting factors, I have
to say that SACD seems to sound better to me.
In the end it has a lot to do with whether you believe
the results of just listening to two alternatives
presented in as similar way as possible but not
identified, or whether you base your judgements on
experiences where any number of irrelevant factors can
intrude.
And in the end you continue to excuse yourself, who have
never done such a test or even the kind of careful
comparisons I have outlined, but that doesn't stop you
from denigrating anybody who holds a pro-sacd point of
view.
Delusions of omnsicence noted. How do you know what I have or have not done?
And to ignore those few engineers and other audio
professionals who have had a chance to compare DSD to a
live feed, who proclaim it closer to transparent than
*any* PCM comparison they have made under similar
conditions.
It's real simple Harry. If they've done a credible listening test, then I'll
listen to them. Heck, I've listened to them anyway, I just weighted what
they said by the effort they failed to put into their evaluations.
Here's a recent antecdotal report from a
well-regarded reviewer who has had access to this
comparison:

Yup, a guy who uses the alias Dr. Sardonicus is *very* credible.
Did I miss his discussion of his experimental controls, or were there none
at all?
