Factoid: The DAC in Transporter actually supports SACD. However, because there is no easy way to rip an SACD, and there essentially no SACD material that you can obtain that isn't on an SACD disc, it's not a very useful capability to have. As such we never added the software support to handle SACD data.
Side by side comparisons of PCM and SACD are very difficult to do for a lot of reasons, not the least of which is that most SACD material out there is actually derived from a higher resolution PCM file to begin with. It's difficult to make a meaningful comparison even playing them through the same DAC, much less two completely different systems. -- seanadams ------------------------------------------------------------------------ seanadams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48748 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
