The designers of the 'Berkeley Audio Design Alpha Rerence DAC' and the 'Trinity DAC' share the same view regarding DSD converted back to PCM for playback, except the Trinity DAC's designer believes a properly implemended/optimized USB for playback is the way to go.
After reading Robert Harley's (The Absolute Sound) interview with Michael Ritter (Berkeley Audio Design) on the DSD implementation and playback, what Baetis is saying makes a lot of sense since it mirrors the views of the Berkeley Audio Designers.
