In a discussion on the PSA forum, a couple of people said (to paraphrase), "What's the big deal? It's only a network streamer. Why can't you make it do double rate DSD?" Paul McGowan, the CEO of PSA who is very honest in his discussions on the forum, said that nothing in streaming is easy and that making the new Bridge play gapless reliably even at single-rate DSD has been a difficult engineering challenge. Maybe it's not so simple -- yet it works perfectly for some people, as Simon said. Ah, life on the cutting edge of audio.

I think a lot depends on what streamer you have. Mine is a Linn DS. It would be interesting to hear about people's experiences with their streamers.
