Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: If you bought a CD player today, what would it be?

Not sure a DAC is "future proof" as the mechanism for transport between computer (or other source) to DAC - as well as the ultimate resolution and file formats haven't been worked out.

It IS proof against the present - in that digital audio is both convenient, fun and SPDIF and TOSLINK are well supported.

RIght now the "hot" thing is Asynchronous USB ... but there are people starting to play with DSD and who knows what means of transport will be used in the future (Thunderbolt? Something else?)

In any event - sounds like fun!
