The sound quality from DACs - is it all the same?

I wish that site would change it's name to something other than "science" because it isn't science, it is, at best, quality assurance.

I am not sure who makes that suggestion.  ASR is a forum that emphasizes the measurements much more so than any other forum including Audiogon.  The topics discussed in Audiogon are mostly in merchandizes, experiences using them with some forms of promotions behind from the dealers mingled in the community.  A suggestion from a member affiliated with a non-technical forum to change the name of a technical-oriented forum is a bit ridiculous.  It is kind of insult to the ASR host.  I suggest whomever makes that suggestion reflect on his credential first.

I thought I did point out, be it almost obliquely, of the dangers of ’factualization’ of the world via linear minded thinking...

...and how this is a core component of the current levels of human stressing, in integration/interaction, and how it is being manipulated into forcing itself upon all others as an enforced reality. ’Truth’ as a sword. Nothing new in that one...

How we are all being led to believe, via radicalized enforcement in mental conditioning... that it somehow represent all facets of a given reality. The entirely normal levels of simplification that occur at individual limits, and in this case, in the mid levels of human intellectualism. Center of the bell curve ’mass action/reaction' aspects.

Normal is for Average. Commonality is not truth, it is simple commonality. Boxes are like walls for safety... but also exist to hold puppies and be in control.

Thanks for "clearing that up"! I just knew that it was Edward Snowden's fault that my tube amplification sounds better but measures worse than a Topstard WE replica silicon SS amp that ASR will test shortly and proclaim it best.

@lalitk ,

OP is not here for learning. Check his other threads. He is learning from his "cousin brother" who is a self-proclaimed expert audiophile. And he says that fancy audiophile is no good compared to Chinese stuff.

There are these few posters on Audiogon who are actively pushing some agenda here. It is pretty clear from their posting and language. Nothing wrong with that. But don't preach what your "cousin brother" or ASR thinks. Use your senses and then come to senses 😃

Yes, it is now a proven scientific fact, all DACs are exactly the same.

Did this turn into open mike night at the Comedy Club?
