A DAC that can make digital sound analog?

I can see why they are naming DAC's R2R, because that's the only way you can get CD's to sound like LP's; that's by recording them and playing back on a good 2 track; in reality, you have transformed digital into analog, because there is nothing digital about the playback from tape.

Bricasti M1. It doesn’t merely sound great ‘for digital’. It sounds great with no qualifiers at all.

Technically, they're R-2R DACs, not R2R, and they have that name because of the resistor ladder circuit that they employ.  It has nothing to do with reel to reel tape.

To go where no audiophile has gone before; past the vinylsphere, beyond the CD zone, and into the far off R2R quadrant. This is the destination one reaches when he records 2 track at 15 IPS and plays it back. No longer do I equate audio in terms of frequency and dynamic range, but in terms of "travelocity"; that's what kind of trip the music is going to take me on this time.

With a bigger source signal, your speakers actually sound bigger, and 3D like you never heard it before; instruments popping out of space, this is what one hears in the far off R2R quadrant in the 15 dimension.

The one DAC I've come across that makes digital sound as effortless and relaxed as analog is the Lab12 DAC1 SE. It does it without sacrificing holographic imaging or detail, pretty darn incredible.
