This such not be an issue for those that purchase their high resolution digital audio files from HDTracks since HDTracks as been "officially" sanctioned by both Stereophile and The Absolute Sound as the "go to place" for high resolution digital audio files. Additionally if one can manage to acquire DSD files from these SACDs then all will be well since DSD has also been "officially" sanctioned by both Stereophile and The Absolute Sound as the best sounding high resolution digital audio file format. ;) Side note: While I still maintain my subscriptions to both Stereophile and TAS (at about $12 each per year, well worth the money just for the laughs provided) I am finding it increasingly difficult to read through even a single equipment review without wearing hip waders and having a very big shovel handy since the BS as now gotten so damn deep. In other words - DSD my ass!
