But isn't the dac (either integrated in the source or external) the next link in the chain after the source? On a side query, won't an external dac completely overwrite the sound sequence of any internal dac? in other words, won't an external dac make any and all digital sources it is...

I have the 80i and I love them too. They are very similar to the 60i with a heavier cable.I have read many posts that recommend the 225i as the best next step up the grado ladder. I also love my HF-2 and my next purchase, if not a Woo amp, will be a RS1i or Alessandro MS Proi. I believe you...

in the words of John McCain, during his campaign against Obama, when asked what he considered "rich"? Five million! ... a year ... he didn't even blink his beady little eyes. .

I love seeing the green dots next to your "names"(those who love and need the sweet soothing sounds that our hobby provides,, those who are online, seemingly always online). God bless us all! (God bless the HeadFiers). <<Please interpret "God" as the rule of the Universe, not as a dogmatic...

Welcome to the "grind", stay in it long enough and you will experience the "rut", and that's when the time really flies. Retirement is only 45 years away!

I prefer open. It is still nice to hear a little environmental sound coming through, let's say if someone in the house needs your attention or if the phone is ringing.
