I believe your observations, but I think we have biases into what we ascribe the results to.We are both agreed on the following:
The ARC DAC 8 plays high rez files better than redbook.
Of the two of us only I have experience with the Mytek, but another Asylum member has agreed with this statement:
The Mytek DAC plays Redbook as well as High rez.
This is not something youy and I agree on, but let's agree to hypothesize this was true so we can get to bias in attribution.
You say the Mytek is clearly faulty. I say the ARC was faulty. :)
I'm just as guilty of bias as anyone else so I'm happy to also yield that point that my attribution is also the result of bias.
My point is, we are each attributing cause/effect in opposite ways, without any real way to resolve the discrepancy at this time.
Best,
ERik
