Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: Dacs with a great bass.

Hi and thanks for the valuable advice.
If i understand well you mean that the very good dynamics are the result of some kind of DSP carried-out with special decoding algorithms that alter the sound ?
i was thinking more that is the multibit nature of the dac chip that gives this exciting performance.
Changing subject a little but not much i was amusing to read that the dac chip used in the last Schiit dac is too good for audio.
Too good for audio ? a sector in which some dacs cost tenth of thousand of dollars too good for those units ?
or also ... too expensive at 100 USD/each ...
what are 100 USD in the high end ? is nothing !
I would be extremely willing to spend 100 USD more to have a top of the class dac chip in my converter.
Sometimes i read weird things.
Anyway i listened to some ess based dac and in the end i found them unexciting ... maybe clean, noiseless, defined ... but flat also.
And i see many of them on sale 2nd hand.
Instead i have hear a ridicoulusly priced 1543 dac that i like.
Maybe a little gross but also musical.
I will try it out soon with a better lab grade power supply i am waiting.
This is not good. The music must excite. Always.
I hope this new dac from Schiit will show the way to all others.
Thanks again.
Kind regards,
bg
