DACs and computers aren't the same things. There is more to a DAC than a chip. I often hear the latest and greatest DACs.
There is a reason that Audio Note manages to keep selling their non-oversampling R2R no digital or analog filtering, non-error-correcting, nonjitter reducing DACs all these years. Usually selling to people who have tried their 5th ESS Sabre DAC and finally had enough.
So it's not really 20 years old when you sell them in 2021. There are sonic reasons they choose the chips and designs they do. Some people do AB direct listening comparisons and some people shop onliune for the DAC with most numbers.
