Lumin D2... Could it be a perceivable upgrade in sound quality?

[wklie (Peter Lie)]

My previous comment on DSD upsampling (applicable to A1 / T1 / D1 / D2) is here:

Lumin A1 DSD Upsampling

A question here for Peter @wklie Hi Peter. I have read reports that the Wolfson WM8471 DAC’s in my A1 perform technically ‘better’ when processing DSD/DFF files, over PCM. Is this true, and in the A1 implementation of the WM8471, and putting purely sonic considerations aside. is there a technical advantage to setting the A1, or indeed Roon to upsample PCM to DSD by default, rather than native processing in PCM? Many thanks.

I’ll leave the questions to other users to comment. There are a few related posts right above yours.
