'So with this in mind, I got to thinking. Maybe there are some good and bad characteristics of each format that appeal to different people's listening characteristics and proclivities.'
That's the conclusion I came to about a month ago.
dvd-a and sacd appeal to different people for different reasons.
Music is so subjective there's not one 'superior' way of listening to it.
A lot of people think dsd sounds like vinyl. To some that's great, to others that's a bad thing.
Depends on the person.
Some people mention numbers showing one format's better than the other; I personally couldn't care less about numbers, bit-rates, sampling, etc. If I think it sounds better, I don't care about what's on paper.
I think in the end, it will come down to ease of use because most people who aren't audiophiles probably won't notice a difference in sonic quality.
