I am new to this forum and I like experimenting with DAW plugins too. I saw the articles on Stereophile and Audiophile Nirvana which led me to try the MSED plugin.
I am on a Mac using DoP based playback. The MSED AU plugin worked for DSD DoP playback. As you mentioned native DSD playback didn't work so I figured it was worth mentioning.
I am currently enjoying a tube based 12AX7 harmonic model plugin. My favorite tubes are 12AX7 and EL34. Makes sense to me to listen to music emulating the same type of equipment the music was created and performed on.
I enjoyed this article.
