The kits are not kit-versions of the factory-built models. They must be judged on their own terms. therefore it is appropriate to compare the kits with other dacs within a persons budget.

The kits should offer better performance than similarly priced factory-built models because you are supplying labor (assuming good system matching). For same-price units, the kits can incorporate better (or more) parts in place of labor. Given that the kits and factory-built models have the same designer, there is likely to be broad similarity (sonics, topology and features) between them. Their is always the chance that a person might prefer one unit over another, regardless of cost. It is all about matching components for the best synergy (hence the AN 'levels').

Bob
