Is it possible to find a good DAC for under $50, 000?


Apparently, the good folks at The Absolute Sound have you covered.

No, it not possible. If you don't spend at least $100k for a DAC, there is always a chance someone else may waste more money than you on a DAC, and therefore believes his is better than yours. 

Plus, you already spent $10k for a few feet of cable, now you start skimping on a DAC? Whats next, a power outlet for under $1k? What has the world (of HiFi) come to? Just the THOUGHT alone makes me shiver.  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mGg64yHW69obBSKnhwWmUHCUJoUxzbNP/view?usp=sharing
