I would tend to think that some company that has the smarts to create a digital product that measures/performs well mathematically, would not defeat that science by tying it to a poor performing analog output stage. That would be hardly a smart thing to do.
I just can't believe that anyone would send a digital device into to Stereophile for review not having done the same measurements that JA does prior. THAT makes no sense to me. Manufacturers know what JA does. There are no secrets.
But ultimately that doesn't matter either if you like the sound of a piece of gear. Just like it and don't fret about the measurements. Considering the poor state of the digital recording art over the past 40 years, clarity may not be a virtue.
