In Reply to: RE: IF you want a DAC to play normal "redbook" cds then you shouldn't buy the latest and greatest... posted by ahendler on April 15, 2014 at 09:36:22:
regarding their Zero times oversampling and no digital/analog filters is this review of the DAC 1.1 linked below."With Audio Note the return to non-oversampling ties in with their earlier efforts on transformer-based DAC current-to-voltage conversion: a transformer forms an interesting low-pass filter to be used with a non-filtered DAC."
It's still different type of process than other design types (although there are some copycats out there) - and on sound quality I agree with you. The SQ is the key thing not one internal part - DACs are dirt cheap and Audio Note you can be sure tried them ALL.
It should be noted that the below review was when Audio Note used an Analog filter and termed it that.
