Any opinions on SONY DSD?

Anyone used, heard it!?

Sounds like an ultimate digital recording.

Heard the demo upstatirs at last AES LA. Unbelievable. They played this Joni Mitchell thing with strings and an old James Taylor record. Both amazing. The real deal was this choir recording in 5.1 DSD, can't remember the name of it. Stunning.

Also did some transfers for an organ trio recording done by Joe Harley/Mike Ross (Prod/Eng). They used the prototype 2 track machine. Very natural sound. It should've won over 24/96 in my estimation, but DSP is a real problem with the format and needs to be re-thought and nothing existing works. Still, it's close to perfection.
