Can someone tell me how to figure out what the DAC is in my MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013)? I'm having trouble... I've gone through all of my Mac's settings and preferences that I am aware of, and no dice... Thanks!

You'd have to open it up and examine the mobo very carefully. Why do you want to know incidentally? Its almost certainly going to be one of the Cirrus Logic/Wolfson integrated thingies, the precise identity of which won't matter much if at all.
