Except, how can you be certain what are the technical cause(s) for what you feel that you subjectively perceive? Even should you be able to reliably detect between DAC boxes employing a full resolution converter and those employing sigma-delta converters, that may be do to some correlated secondary system implementation factor, and not due to the converter technology itself. I'm not declaring that you cannot reliably tell a difference, I'm questioning how you can reliable assigned that difference to the converter type. This reminds me some of declarations by some that they can hear the difference between bipolar and MOSFET power amplifier output stage devices.
