| The sound quality from DACs - is it all the same? “Most everyone here understands there must be a balance between measurements and listening.” I agree but then there are folks like OP who just can’t seem to comprehend anything beyond measurements, you know the type…bits are bits, 1’s and 0’s, et... | |
