what are the Best Direct to amps Digital Players ?

@ sounds real audio, Wow!, I am telling the wife of this post, we argue at times that when I am hearing huge very low bass, she says I am crazy, she does not hear it!, and then at the same time, the woman, the wife can hear higher notes!, explain that one?, Is it because they have smaller ear drums?, sounds like cables, LOL!, the bigger gauge has deeper better bass, the smaller wires in a cable are better with finese and higher notes!mmmm, they are on to something here,LOL!

Gentleman,, I need an all in one player, transport and dac, not a dac, then a transport, cheers.

It's just genetic adaptation. Over the millenia, women's ears have evolved so they could hear the highs better (to help them hear a baby crying, etc.) and conversely their response to lower frequency sounds has decreased, such as the sound of a deep male voice asking them to get you a beer.

Audiolab - you will ultimately make many compromises in sound quality by combining transport and DAC, and you will probably spend the same amount of money.
