Just wondering with all the advancement in dac technology. I would guess something like the Schiit Modi, for example, is probably as good as $2k dacs of 5 - 7 years ago? I don’t have the latest and greatest dac, but would it be correct to assume something like a Modi or Bifrost is within 98% of the uber expensive ones in terms of all things measurable and audible? I would guess now the magic of dacs isn’t in increasing accuracy but in the tuning, maybe tune for wider soundstage, more real vocals, etc…along with correct equipment matching?
