Why relate this discussion with rather vague comments from the maker of primarily analogue preamps and amps? While the testing procedures they speak of may be useful, it looks like an excerpt from a 1999 article in "Ultimate Audio" - is that a well respected journal and has the testing procedure talked about been substantiated? Is this test method being used by others due to its utility? I read this review of their recent Aeris DAC: http://www.hifi-advice.com/Jeff-Rowland-Aeris-review.html and wish that more on-line reviewers at least did some of the "common measurements" to make sure the basics are done well - especially for a DAC costing >$11K Euros and has USB input limited to 96kHz at this price. It does look very pretty though!
