Reviewers could improve the situation with DACs if they used the worst possible transports in their reviews, rather than the best. If this became widespread, DAC manufacturers would be forced to build input and clock circuits that work well. One way of creating a "bad" transport would be to introduce a buggered up "reclocker" between a good transport and the DAC under test. This special reclocker would introduce controlled amounts of different types of jitter.
