@jjss49 ,
Maybe someone needs to put an Echo Dot in an aluminum case ship it with a special power supply and sell it for $2499.99. What do you think the response would be then?
The sound quality from DACs - is it all the same?
I've been talking to my cousin brother about sound quality. He is a self-proclaimed expert audiophile. He says that Audio Science Review has all of the answers I will need regarding audio products.
In particular, he says an inexpensive DAC from any Chinese company will do better than the expensive stuff. He says fancy audio gear is a waste of money because the data is already bit-perfect. All DAC chips sound the same. Am I being mislead?
He also said that any DAC over $400 is a waste of money. Convincing marketing is at play here, he says.
He currently owns a Topping L30 headphone amplifier and D30 Pro DAC. He uses Sennheiser HD 569 headphones to listen to music. I'm not sure what to think of them. I will report my findings after listening one day! (likely soon, once I get some free time)

Gee mahgister.......if you cared to actually read what he wrote, you'd find it very insulting in it's insinuation. I used humor to deflect. What you should do is stop jumping at every chance to try to get back at me, which makes it clear what your motives are. For all the pontification you do about being above it all and being kind, you don't practice it so much. Is that not a contradiction? All the best,

First he stated his viewpoint without insulting YOU... Second i think you are right about biases, but why not explaining your point of view? Instead of posting an insult against his intelligence... Third, yes i admit that i answered to some of your posts...I try to be kind, i dont succeed all time, and no i am not above people, i am above political ideolologies, ... Four i always substantiated my answers to your post with arguments...for example in another thread you have denounced people turning audiogon into "facebook" wars of images and insults cartoons i only suggest here to your own reflection : why do you do it yourself ? For example explain your viewpoint about biases to this poster instead of insult... I will approve your post because i think the same about biases as you i think.... Anyway i will not answer with an insulting cartoon toward you if i am in disagreement with you for sure... I dont like image cartoon with insults associated to someone like you seems to like it... I am sorry if we differ in taste.... By the way i dont have facebook...
