I think he's basically saying, at least in the second part which I agree with, that when you get a bit perfect DAC, for $400, how can a $2000 unit sound better? If its bit perfect its all you can get. I believe he's saying that due to natural flaws in all materials used their is no true bit perfect, but hey...I could be wrong.

.This was my main point There is no perfect sound reproduction system.
Where has anyone on Head-Fi said there is a perfect sound reproduction system?

I'm personally more interested in D to A; I would think the recording engineers would be more interested in the A to D encoding.

In the course of history some people do/believe crazy things in hindsight. Pointing them out will not prevent people from doing different crazy things in the future.

So your point is to turn this into an ad hominem argument? This will go nowhere.
You would best serve yourself by stepping away from the keyboard, think of what point you are trying to make with supporting information, and then try. What makes perfect sense in the bits racing around in your mind isn't clear to me since I cannot read minds.
Whatever point you are trying to make is lost in a jumble of disconnected statements which don't have any relevancy at first glance. Which reminds me of a tee-shirt saying...
My friends keep telling me I have AHDD but I don't believe them...hey look, there's a chicken.
Hey, everyone is entitled to their opinion, even if it doesn't specifically make sense to us. I think it's in the Constitution although that doesn't mean Jack in this country anymore....
Now I want one of those tee shirts!!

the whole point is-which is better PC-MAC? spend more for headphones or DAC-some guy who has 2000 fri---- posts does n't understand my point-
another guy says who said -who said there was such a things as a perfect system?
Nobody said that!!!!! Rather-do any of you read these posts? Which is better? x or Y? Does anyone think somebody asks that question so they can go out and buy the crappier of the two?
The way my post was answered-you'd think that was the case. Why do people ask for opinions-what is so hard about understanding why people do?
Probably because they like music I would guess-and if they do they want a good sound re-producer. How hard is that to understand? My daughter understood that concept in the second grade.
So along comes a new poster and says just amazing and all he says is the quest itself for the holy grail can in some instances become down right stupid ala Sterophile magazine. Whats so hard to understand about that statement?
He goes on to say that designing DACs i8s more art than science as in the case of transducers. One with half brain would assume that a DAC was all about math. Where does art go in with mathamatical equations and calculations? I*sn't DAC design pure science? No it isn't.
That's really a hard concept to understand too.-isn't it!
So if its not science and alot of it is art-and the quest can get stupid- may be the term best is a bad term to use.
Is that hard to understand? Maybe a dedicated DAC is overkill.
What I have learned is that no matter how good my equipment is-it can be any better than how it was originally recorded. Is that so hard to understand?
Or is it just more fun to belittle the poster? I have seen the answer and any advice -judging from the responses to this post-would be suspect to say the least.
