Thanks for mentioning this!  They are quoting 100dB SNR for 24 bit PCM
recording.

A little Googling reveals:

    Chinese retail price RMB 5,999 ~=3D USD$980:

-pcm-d100-upgrade-of-the-famous-d50s

     Some photos and people saying how much they like the D50 and M10.

     It is made in China.

It can record and play back 2.8MHz DSD format:

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Stream_Digital

which is 4 times the bit rate of 16 bit PCM 44.1kHz and 2.666 times the
data rate of 24 bit PCM 44.1kHz.
