For those who find it interesting to compare DSD with PCM/Flac, this same source sampler is pretty good;

iFi is very proud to announce that to celebrate the launch of the iDAC2, Sound Liaison has prepared a special sample album titled ‘iFi micro-iDAC2 Music Sampler’ for all music lovers alike. You can find three specially selected tracks in three formats; PCM, FLAC and DSD. (http://soundliaison.com/all-categories/185-ifi-micro-idac2-music-sampler)

‘Impromptu’ was recorded live directly to DSD using the Tascam DA-3000 DSD recorder and simultaneously to PCM with the RME UFX.

Hmm, only 1 of their albums is available from a DSD recording. The others are PCM sourced.
So it does make the comparisons not as interesting as the title suggests.

True.

The pcm recordings are very good however...don't skip just b/c not dsd (I'm saying this as a die hard dsd fan)
