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

Not true...

The Benchmark DAC1 is not lean in the mids. None of the reviewers, e.g., John Atkinson, John Marks, of Stereophile, et al, have ever mentioned this. As a DAC1 owner I can certainly confirm there is no leanness. What some may be hearing is the removal of the jitter-induced grunge that makes a fatter thicker sound in the mids and bass. But this is simply distortion which, once removed, provides a substantially cleaner, faster, more accurate sound -- like the top Mark Levinsons, Thetas, Wadias.
