Blindjim, I would suggest you take a look at my thread entitled: Reference DACS: An over all perspective, it contains tons of information on non/up/over sampling, solid state/tube DACS on the market today.
The discussion revolves around to distinct types of "flavors" in world class DACS that are described as Type 1 ot Type 11.
There is no one "superior" approach to the D/A conversion process, but personnal taste and system synergy really make the difference. Look at the thread for fine details in the sonic differences.
