DSD download file recommendations
DSD file support sample rates: DSD 64, DSD 128, ... More number more sample rate.
In general, it is recommended to download music records with the maximal sample rate of your system. But it can't guarantee maximal sound quality though. Read details here >
Some people try to analyze audio files. Bandwidth is checked in most cases. But the width may be defined by used audio tools. And band limitation is not an unambiguous sign of upsampling from CD, as an example.
DSD resampling quality (losses) depend on the used converter. Technically, these losses like to PCM resampling losses. If you use professional resampler you can don't worry about it in general.
If original studio master in PCM, you have two options:
- purchase DSD copy;
- purchase PCM and convert it to DSD at your converter software under your control.
The second way may be preferable if you are sure that your converter is same or better than studio one.
Most recommended is DSF file downloads. Because the format can contain metadata, including artworks, standard way. DSF files have lesser compatibility issues with hardware and software, as rule.
