I can agree with this, Wombat.  DR analysis of many of these digital
files have shown essentially the same values as the CD's but whether
there's more detail, etc within the compressed dynamic range is yet to
be seen.  I haven't spent time on blind comparisons yet however but
they do sound good at 24/88 on my Transporter.

Most rippers I see are using Saracon for these DSD -> PCM conversions
and thus filtered out most of the ultrasonic noise; good to see!
