I'm kinda hoping Syn is an external crossover with adjustable hi/lo pass filters for properly integrating a subwoofer. I'm pretty sure that's not what it is but a guy can dream, right? It could also be an external karaoke device so we can all sound like Schiit.
Yes Please!!!!

Whoever mentioned a crossover may be right. From wiki:

"High lists Syn eleventh, and details that she "guards the doors of the hall and shuts them against those who are not to enter"
It also says that Syn is "appointed in defense" at things "in legal matters in which she wishes to refute".

So Syn must be a digital surround-sound decoder/processor. By way of HDMI, of course. Mike has finally returned to his work on surround sound technologies to finally bring balance against the oppressive tendencies of Dolby, DTS and others.

Karaoke or crossover??
Crossover Karaoke - for when you want your schiity singing to match your schiity CUV. 🤣

I want a t-shirt that says, "Artificial intelligence can't beat real stupid." I think we're gonna see lots of examples of that in the coming months/years.
I think we'll see a lot of examples of something even worse (or maybe this is what you meant): AI carries a scary risk of amplifying real stupid.

All DACs that I know of have an analog low-pass filter. Ours are usually at 100-300kHz, depending on the application.

A brickwall 20kHz filter? Yeah, no, that's another story. One that I thought had ended in the late 1980s. But I could be wrong about that. I'm wrong about a lot of things.
Yes, that's the crux of it, thanks. Not all NOS DACs will remove the stair steps, yes? That was the original context of the discussion.

I did find this one, though:

Having removed all the digital filtering that is part of the oversampling, we have also dispensed with all filtering in the analogue domain

That would be cool, but sounds more $49 than $449.
