The chip maker has done an unbelievable job, but Joe has too or you couldn't get measurements that low.
I'm very excited about this product.
(So, is that enthusiastic enough for you Jorge?)

Yep, that works...

A quick shout-out to Joe W., our HeadRoom audio engineer here ... Sure, the Sabre8 DAC chip is indeed gd incredible but Joe's circuit designs, his dozens of permutations & iterations of the board layout, beaucoup corporate listening tests -- not to mention his dogged research perseverance -- bespeaks his brilliance which is why the DAC will sound so right between the ears !!

You'll likely not ever get Joe to post here (we dont pay him enough!

) since he's either mnt biking, skiing, or crunching numbers sooooo ... Kudos, Dub!

Now.... to put the thing on fast-track, eh!!


[just kidding!]
CHEERS,
