The way to listen to CDs is that the sounds of the waves recorded in the wav for broadcasts are felt noisy and consulted with the engineer they got the advice that when you convert wav to DSD, its noisy feel disappears That was the motivation.
As a wav's characteristic, it seems that the sounds of waves and insects can be heard harsh, but in the case of DSD it has a nature: that habit disappears.
The sound of DSD is suited to classical music such as an orchestra, but even if there are many sounds that are reproduced accurately and naturally, I feel that basically it does not match your own feel of music (4 rhythm). When I down-convert to CD wav, it seems that it becomes an ideal sound!
