No, the product page mentions the "DSD Remastering Engine", which says the same thing as the article. They probably just mean they're using a 1-bit DAC, and are trying to pass that off as a selling point. Although the article did lose the "1-bit" part.

Then I stand corrected, although the article does conflate DSD decoding with The "remastering engine". Just cause it can decode it doesn't mean it can resample PCM into DSD. Those are 2 seperate features.
