Some DSD sounds good. Some doesn’t.
From a page online:
WHAT ARE SOME DRAWBACKS OF USING DSD?
The problem with DSD is that it is noisier and offers a more limited frequency range than comparable 24-bit PCM of a sampling rate >88.2kHz.
As a 1-bit format, there isn’t enough space in DSD for it to be dithered properly. As a result, you end up with an elevated noise floor.
The same issue applies to the DAC designs that originally inspired the format.
✔ I agree 100% with the above.
NCH software - express rip - it’s bit perfect for ripping CD-Rs. Much better than DSD imo.
