Why are DAC's so much more expensive than transports?


DAC's looks less expensive to make, yet Stereophile "A" DAC's commonly run over 10K while top rated transports are around 3K.

@jasonbourne71 - I don’t have your experience in audio and hi-fi equipment. I only really started purchasing and listening to nicer equipment the last 4 years or so. But in just that short time, I’ve experienced different dacs and their unique attributes. You seem to suggest they are largely all the same, which has not been my experience.
