There's a little truth to both. Not everyone who buys expensive stuff is lacking sense but I definitely know people who consider more expensive to be more desirable even when told otherwise.

Modding the PS Audio Directstream DAC MK1 and MK2
OOF. Yeah I installed my MK2 APS transformers without any issues. Luckily I don't see that random PCB sticking out from my pictures of when I opened up my unit.

Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
@alvin1118 Does the firmware apply to all models of the Terminator? Even the very first model before the DSP board upgrade?  
Passive speakers for desktop
