OK this is an edit. It is as if troutbum asked:
Q troutbum:> Why should one buy a DAC?
So instead of any kind of answer, further down in this thread Someone says:
A :> Quite simply, you need to go out and listen to complete systems so that you can understand system synergy.
So the guy is asking should I buy one, answer bla. bla, bla. But really no answer to his question. Go listen, where is he suppose to listen. You take it for granted that he can just go down to the corner and waste somebodys time until he feels comfortable enough to actually hear the subtleties of sound. That is no kind of answer. Does this mean that if he cannot understand system synergy he does not need a Dac?
Q :> How does it enhance your system?
He already assumes a fact that has not been presented, that the Dac will enhance his system. He asks how?
The answer we get further down in the thread, still answering the same question is:
A :> You need someone to walk you through a series of experiences to help you understand what is possible based on who are you, what you like, what you already have, (room), and what is best.
What series of experiences, is going to tell us how does it enhance our systems. This is not an answer to the question. It is no help at all. This is not taken out of context.
Somebody who knows more than me needs to say, hay you will need one, and two without one you will not hear anything.

I never intended to be answer Troutbum's question, but correct your post.

""This is not an answer to the question""

Yes, and the post that my answer addressed, was to YOUR post, - which also did not answer Troutbum's question, but further obscured it. You have no right to dictate to others whether or not they SHOULD be answering the question... when you say....

"It is no help at all"

Of course, correcting your (lie) or Straw Man, is no help to the original question(s) posed by Troutbum. Pot meet kettle. All of your posts in this thread, are not only no help to Troutbum's original questions, - but they take away from them. YOU started this, "diminishing returns" sub-thread.

""This is not taken out of context.""

Yes, it is still taking it out of (Troutbum's) context. Absolutely. YOU changed the context from Troutbum's question, to wrongheaded assumptions about "diminishing returns," and costs. The context is about your erroneous assumptions, not Troutbum's original question. My answer to you was within context of your dumb sub-thread.

You are again, lying. Taking my quoted statements out of - Sordidman 16:35:20 06/15/12 (0)
context of their reply TO YOU as answers to YOUR WRONGHEADED statements; - cannot be attributed as answers to Troutbum's questions: THEY ARE LIES.
I NEVER attempted to answer his questions as his questions were answered very well by other posters in this thread.
But certainly I felt the need to criticize your erroneous assumptions (and non-answers) to Troutbum's posts/questions. Since you yourself admitted that you too would like those questions answered: I would humbly suggest that you remain silent, read, and learn, - instead of posting irrelevant pictures, and obfuscating the matters at hand: with assumptions and (generating lies about what others are saying) about matters you have no experience with.

  that I respect him, and his history here, and would NEVER say something like that to him.
  
  Cheers,
