Hello

Is it true that all the Sony SACD capable players have a converter that
will turn DSD digital into analog, while other players turn that DSD
into PCM?

Thnx in advance.

Not really. It is true that there are such things as DACs that accept either
PCM or DSD inputs, but they handle the DSD input by bypassing some of the
circuitry that is used for PCM inputs.

Thnx
So, there is really no advantage of buying a cheap Sony SACD vs. a
cheap SACD player from other company?

Thnx
