From "An Introduction to Digital Audio" by John Watkinson, an apparently well respected member of the AES (all emphasis added by me):
...he's clearly referring to the DAC64 in the last couple of sentences. My experience with it would show his assertions to be correct :MILD: . I do pity the rest of you though with "simply not well engineered" and "deficient" DACs though :JOEL:

Michael If this quote is true then it explains why so many proaudio dealers have been looking at me with disbelief when I say that the transport is so important, when they are saying that it just sends 1s and 0s! Maybe this is why the M-Audio DAC that Tone has mentioned sounded so good at so little money? Dominic
