RE: Regardless of the self-serving ugly literature...

Like with almost everything else audio execution matters more than the technology chosen.
I own a Burson DAC that sounds spectacular but it has it's limits, flip side, one of the best preamps to ever grace my system is the Esoteric C03 which relies on ICs exclusively for gain control and signal amplification duty.
Its level of transparency and neutrality only bested by the SMc VRE-1, which is again all discreet...

I do admire though like you do a designer who goes through the pain of conceiving all elements of the circuit but I don't necessarily equate it to superior sound, just a respect for the craftsmanship.
