RE: How can a DAC so dinky sound so good?

Why not?

IMO DAC's sound more similar than different... Just borrow a few, including big buck ones and do some A/B comparison plugged into different inputs (use an SPL meter to make sure they're all set at the same volume) and maybe a couple of computers playing the same song synchronized so you can flip between inputs to hear the difference.

I've said here many times that there's almost no difference between standard oversampling DAC's unless they're so crappy that noise is leaking through or have aliasing / roll-off (eg. NOS).
