In Reply to: Put it down to weariness posted by John Atkinson on April 20, 2004 at 17:29:15:
"Put it down toi the fact that I am _deeply_ suspicious of a DAC
that omits the reconstruction filter. You may like the sound, but it
is poor engineering by any definition of the word. "That's what people said about tubes, and horns...sheesh. Talk about closed minded. Heaven forbid someone may think outside the box.
Go hear a filterless DAC, John, you must have by now. Does original thinking threaten the status quo too much?
