I really do not understand this. Could someone explain how this works. Here is the deal. I want a DacMagic and it says it converts to 24/192KHz, but the flac files from B&W Society of Sound Music says they are 24/48KHz. Now will this affect the sound quality any?- brown274

High-end IEM vs High-end speakers
I have been wondering lately how the top IEM's (13 pro, 11 pro etc...) compare to high-end speakers. While the top in ears will cost about $1300, Speakers usually start at $1300. Are these IEM's anywhere in the same league as top tier speakers from makers like Focal, Dynaudio, Wilson ect....- brown274
