In Reply to: I disagree on you about the DAC posted by Deon C on April 20, 2004 at 20:03:22:
that the very first CD players had no digital fliters. So it's not a new concept. Some Harman block head engineer wrote a letter to Stereophile a few years ago expressing the view that a DAC cannot work without the fliter and that absence of the filter is bad engineering, I suppose that is where Atkinson gets this old fashioned idea.
