" that's all (volume control) handled with nasty Ladder-DAC's that convert your yummy analog signal into a shitty digital one, and then back again."
That seems unlikely. If they are using ladder DAC's it's probably because they can work entirely in the analog domain (albeit at a finite number of settings) from the perspective of the signal.
But I doubt that blowhard's care about such matters.
