DS and DSM will be developed con-currently to different group of users. ...

I know that Linn has presented Linn DS information under "Buying Linn -> Product Information -> Linn DS". But why they don't put it under "Our System -> Linn DS"?
This action will distract the consumer that only Linn DSM is available and Linn DS will also be sold concurrently but not in high profile.
DSM --> M = Music / Movies & TV / Mobile / Multi-source / Multi-room / Multi-user /
Decoding vs. Rendering
Modern surround formats such as Dolby True-HD and DTS-HD MA are capable of lossless high-resolution audio, but the performance of these formats is ultimately limited by the quality of the rendering process (i.e. the way digital data is converted into an analog signal).
The actual decoding algorithm is unimportant (a lossless decoder is just that) so the DSM offloads the decoding process to the Bluray player. This has the advantage of removing a potentially noisy and power hungry process which may otherwise have an adverse effect on the delicate analog audio signal.
The DSM focuses instead on being an audio renderer, converting each audio sample in the HDMI stream with the highest possible accuracy. Timing accuracy is achieved by using a unique two-stage clock recovery process, and amplitude accuracy is achieved by employing the same low distortion conversion circuitry as DS.
Decoding : Dolby True-HD / DTS-HD MA --> Digital Signal (Noisy Operation)
Rendering : Digital Signal --> Analog Signal (DAC) - Timing & Amplitude Accuracy
The decoding task is straight forward but noisy which is moved away from DSM.
However, the sound quality is always depending on the DAC convertion and handling power / precision.
This is the most important part (DAC) that Linn DSM working on to ensure high quality sound output.
Linn 尼排動作多多。。。雖然研發新產品系好事,但係步伐不應太快,特別是產品的市場定位,renewds已經使akurate的市場受到衝擊,依家再推出DSM系列,如果再使市場混淆,衝擊DS系列ge產品,令產品貶值,便得不償失。而且會損失一批老客戶的信心,因爲產品保值的程度亦是信心的重要一環,保持產品推出的周期,是一個成熟marketing的重要一環。。。可以使銷售最大化,但是周期過短,就會使市場消化不良,就好似日本仔geAV擴音機,其實每次更新都不大,技術含量也不高,但係就維持1年左右才推出一個新的版本,就是這個道理。
