audiventory Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 The laptop doesn't have an 'audiophile' soundcard, and I'm not claiming the sound is better than an external DAC, but I can clearly hear the difference between various formats (.mp3 Vs FLAC vs DSD etc). Why are DSD DAC's required when any pc (or Mac with the right software) can already play these files? Impossibly consider any format (WAV, FLAC, DSD) and DAC without considering full system: "audio player software / driver / audio interface / DAC». For getting full potential DSD better use DSD DAC. If you use PCM DAC - better result, as rule, give PCM formats (WAV, FLAC, AIFF, …). Also many depend on quality that DAC and other elements of the system provide. Even for «no-native» format.
