You want to talk about older DACs? The DACs in good quality digital players such as the Transporter or a mid-priced CD player have generally been free of audible defects since the late 1980s. Since then the most significant change has been an ongoing lowering of costs to the point where at this time a < $3 DAC chip is again free of audible flaws. Don'y be mislead by salesman's patter touting magic DAC chips. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ arnyk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=64365 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105572 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
