First off I don't do any PC Audio, wireless or otherwise, that includes DSD format music files. Just not into PC audio other than loading 24/96 & 24/192 files onto a USB stick that goes into my Oppo 95 which feeds my 200.
So my question is in theory am I bastardizing the quality of SACD reproduction when playing SACD discs in my Oppo given it starts out as a digital file, gets converted into analog as it leaves my Oppo and then is digitized once again upon it's arrival into the 200 - either sampled at 96 or 192?
Yes I've read there is a chance that there will be an announcement of DSD application in Munich and suspect that if anything comes to pass it will be DSD type files via USB input but that doesn't address what happens when playing discs in my source.
I am anything but an expert but to me would multiple conversions make the final outcome less "pure"?
Just something that makes me go hmmmmmm......
