Not true look at very high end dacs like the chord Dave
It’s very detailed and cutting edge but very neutral ,which for instance if you have a Vacuum tube amplifier or preamp would be a ideal match , also with the hundreds of brand Audio cables ,even digital they all have a solid signature that you personally can Taylor to your specific Audio system ,it just takes time and monies to
match, sometimes you have to sell something to get better synergy ,but that’s what Audiophiles do. Some Audio dealers allow a trial period . You control your $$ .
you absolutely should research every product and reviews,forum information you are considering to purchase.
