Re: just to confuse things more about dsd vs. pcm (and upsampling)

You get rid of the very steep brick wall filter at 22.1kHz which causes massive phase distortion. Same with 24/192. With DSD, distortion at hf is masked by upsampling noise and playback without a steep hf filter relies on a hf noise tolerant chain. With high sample rate pcm, the hf distortion products are not.
