$10 Dollar DAC Sounds Perfect?

I guess when I compared DACs recently, and they sounded different (in this case not better or worse, just different) my ears were playing tricks on me.  LOL.

nonoise, I was being sarcastic.   Of course I think their whole notion is complete BS.

It just goes to show most of the people are stupid, most of the time.

I guess this is kinda click bait. The DAC is not in a box with connections? Don’t know where the support would come from should it burn up overnight. Does anyone buy anything just for two considerations? Price and performance. That would be dumb. Not to mention there are a hundred reasons why someone is willing to pay higher prices for a thing. What is the point... exactly?

Your system is very nice. Glad you don’t subscribe to these ridiculous stories...
