Over generalization. You can use an external DAC with a PC based system. And there are DACs that sound just as good as the best CDPs.
MOD EDIT: I moved all the posts pertaining to the subject matter of this thread here. Sadly, VBulletin merges/moves in chronological order so things are kinda messed up a bit, but deal with it as best you can. - Zanth

These need a good system as they reveal the recording and equipment much more than the RS-1 - which IMO means they are doing what they are supposed to be doing. |
