SA-CD (Super Audio CD)

The SA-CD standard is based on Direct Stream Digital (DSD) technology. This new direct-stream digital format comprises a 1-bit system that has a digital sampling frequency that is 64 times higher than that of conventional audio CD. There are three types of SA-CD discs: single-layer, dual-layer and hybrid discs. Each type may contain two areas of recorded information: a High Quality Stereo area and a High Quality Multi- channel area.

–A single layer disc can contain both information areas.

–A dual layer disc can contain both information areas. Double the information can be stored on the disc, thanks to the second layer.

–A hybrid disc can contain both information areas, and also a second, standard CD layer, making it playable on standard CD players.
