Everything has its place. You can't fix electronic distortion with acoustics. You can't fix room flutter with a better DAC. You can't fix group delay or lack of dynamic range with speaker positioning. You can't fix boomy bass by reducing jitter.
Your ears don't like distortion and they don't care where it comes from. A holistic approach is better IMO. (And remember making the end sound as reminiscent of reality as possible as often as possible isn't the same as accuracy, necessarily. Recordings aren't real sounds. Decide what you want before you start.) Darren -- darrenyeats http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/richpub/listmania/byauthor/A3H57URKQB8AQO/ref=cm_pdp_content_listmania/203-7606506-5721503.
