DAC chips are the new "Watts per channel" !
Good point as excellent DAC chips have been commodities for quite a while now.
There have been DAC chip improvements along the way but it's what the designer does with the chip and supporting components that is more important than the chip itself.
I don't buy DACs based on what chip is inside. I buy and keep DACs based on how they sound to me.
