My understanding is that DSD is the best choice for recording and storing, at least as good or better than analog.
However, it has to be converted into PCM for mastering, and then back to dsd for pressing the sacd..
As I understand it, there's not one that's better than the other for playback because of the DSD to PCM conversion.
However, sacds are more simple to use than bluray or dvd.
I wish sacds would replace cd for new releases.
