    I downloaded an .iso image of a SACD, with .6ch and .2ch files. Anyone an idea how to covert these puppies to something I can use? WAV or AIFF? I'd prefer to do it on Mac, but Windows is a possibility also. Anyone please? *yes*

    SACD uses a 1 bit DSD stream with a sampling rate of 2.8224 MHz and that's not compatible with WAV/AIFF, so you would need to convert it to PCM with a usual sampling rate. It's not worth it, if it's for better quality.
