Bottom line, it is your money. Would I spend $30K on a DAC? Not only no...but "hell f**king no". In my opinion the price exceeds the return on what our normal human hearing can process. I'd rather spend far less on a DAC if I needed it, and if I still wanted to throw money around I would give it to a local food bank or adopt a few families and give them one of the best Christmas Times they have ever had. Just my opinion. But again, I am all for Capitalism and wealth accumulation. It's your money, do with it what you wish and Carpe Diem!
