Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: You'rd confused as to which sort of "soundstage" is being discussed here

Its clear that an individual component in the context of a system can affect the soundstage and imaging in some way but its all in the context of a system. If your speakers don't image will or aren't setup up to image well, how good your dac is probably wont matter too much. If you honestly believe that you can hear one component in a chain you are deluded.

Maybe in the context of the same system, swapping out one component for another can give you a comparison in that system, but it doesn't tell you anything about how those components will behave in another system.

And am I missing something? You are calling me confused about the sort of soundstage being discussed, and yet your ASR holy grail doesn't even measure anything about the soundstage, let alone compare any of its dacs directly in terms of soundstage? And you think it is fake? And somehow I am confused?
