If we were more civilized and not attack a person's opinion, this would probably be a much better place, where people could really form themselves a opinion about a product. As it is, that DAP is not worthy a single dollar in my opinon. My ALC codec (latest generation, true) beats it in almost every thinkable area: timbre, neutrality, detail, soundstage, frequency extension. The only things that DAP do better, but only by a small margin, are SNR and dynamic range. But that is minor compared to what it does NOT do right.
So my advice would be if you have the possibility to try it first, do it. You might end up shocked, like I was.
I gave my unbiased opinion about said product w/o attacking anyone. I respect others' opinion so I don't make comments (rude or not) about their comments.
Saying its not worth a dollar is pretty rude.
