About the Super Audio CD
Super Audio CD is a new high-quality audio
disc standard where music is recorded in the
DSD (Direct Stream Digital) format
(conventional CDs are recorded in the PCM
format). The DSD format, using a sampling
frequency 64 times higher than that of a
conventional CD, and with 1-bit quantization,
achieves both a wide frequency range and a wide
dynamic range across the audible frequency
range, and so provides music reproduction
extremely faithful to the original sound.
Types of Super Audio CDs
There are two types of discs, depending on the
Super Audio CD layer and CD layer
combination.
• Super Audio CD layer*: A high-density
signal layer for Super Audio CD
• CD layer*

to turn the disc over.
