Hi, my main source for music is an Innuos Zen mini mk2 with an SBooster LPS via USB. The Majestic via this input is limited to 48khz, but I have a number of DSD files which sound amazing. Is my Innuos changing what is being delivered to the Majestic. Either way it sounds fantastic. Best DAC I've owned. Hope you can help.

Cheers Andrew

My Roon Nucleus plays back DSD files and is connected via USB to my Majestic. My Nucleus is converting the DSD to 48/16 for the USB interface and I am very happy with the music I hear. I think your Innuos is doing the same and handles the DSD very well from what you wrote Andy. The Majestic is performing the crucial role of turning the digital stream into musical analogue sound.
