If I purchased a DSD file, what will it need to play?

Ok, I see DSD file for sale, If I buy one, I just drop it on my NAS and my DAC or Computer will play it and send it to my DAC, or I need a I2S [I square] to play it?

how does it work?

How do I transfer it to a CD?

a newbie question, sorry!

DSD files can be played back on various machines of various prices. I have a Grimm MU2, which can play dsd files from its own internal hard drive or from a usb flash drive connected to the usb type A port. This is just one example. I’m sure ai can recommend other devices that can play dsd files.

My Eversolo DMP A8 will handle DSD from onboard storage or fed from an external source but I’ve only begun to dabble in DSD playback.

A no cost way to get a started is to download Foobar 2000 to a computer and run that into a DAC that will decode DSD.

Thanks, so my FiiO could do it!

for computer, is there a way to stop app, to mess up with art cover? and my stored music?

Each time, I had try one, first thing, it change art cover, and split album

I just want something that play what I have, like WMP 12 was, before december 2025

I don’t know. Very few of my DSD downloads or rips found album art and metadata. I’ve attempted to fix but have not been successful and it hasn’t been a priority.

Doesn’t work, still having Flac file, ripping DSD, nopeP
Playing DSD, nope

no player for windows…!

If your streamer is dsd capable it will play. Must be using usb or is2. I download dsd all the time and the meta data comes with it.
