Plain and simple there are good and bad external and internal components. One is not always better then the other.
I never said all amps, DAC or any other device, Many designs are built to sound a certain way. Flat response but still offering a certain charachter.
So, if these units are not "colored" in anyway and are meant to just produce the flat response of the components then I guess the unit with the highest specificaitons will yeild the best sonic results?
There are many internal soundcards released right now that are very,very good. Saying a $75 DIY DAC can shred "$200" soundcards when the specifications would suggest different is a bit misleading.
Just saying keep your $75 DIY DAC in perspective. There is no need to get way off topic and get into an argument. Different strokes for different folks.
I am actually checking one out, I may buy one to add to my system. That site you linked to has quite a few nice looking projects for DIY.
