DSD converted digital data resembles analog sound wave signal, and the D/A conversion can be achieved through a simple low-pass filter. Comparing to PCM recording technology, there is no complex filtering in the process of A/D and D/A conversions. Therefore, DSD can catch the most precise and natural sound in music. DSD can be converted easily to 24, 20, and 16-bit PCM signal without any significant loss of signal for compatibility with CD and DVD. So, a CD or DVD audio master can be produced from a DSD master very easily." - Entry researched, transcribed, and submitted by discogs username: ghostrecordings
