perhaps, an aside, but a question nonetheless.
the issue is a comparison between two solid state dacs.
could someone explain how a ss dac can better a tube dac
with respect to the strengths of tube character. also, the facility to find the ideal tube is not possible with ss products.
my favorite tube digital components are the original zanden dac and the original 20 bit lector.
i'll admit that a well designed solid state product has its strong points, but there is something about the classic tube sound that cannot be replicated using a solid state device.
