When I went to hear Audio Research's latest DAC the DAC 8, I assumed I would be demoing a tube DAC, I was shocked and surprised to find that it was all solid state. I decided to hear it back to back with there slightly older upgraded tube DAC7. The 8 was clearly superior but I was still skeptical so I contacted ARC and asked why they when solid state. They confirmed that there listening panel simple preferred the solid state unit. Maybe thats why there are few tube DAC's out there.
