Thanks, that was a good read!

They claim there one tenth the price of the big boys, if they would just be one one hundredth, than I'd buy one.

Probably could have lopped a nice chunk of change off the retail price if they lose this right here :

Laser-engraved stainless steel and aluminum housing.
Faceplate available in black or silver.

but we all know if it LOOKS good it will SOUND good

What the DAC 2004 most definitely is:

Completely handmade, hand-soldered, hand-assembled, tested, and personally cared for.
An almost completely non-distorting masterpiece of sound electrical engineering.
The best our knowledge allows us to create.
Extremely underpriced as a method of marketing without running high debt.

Gotta love the bullshit going on here guys.

1-personally cared for
2-almost completely non-distorting masterpeice
3-extremely underpriced

they actually have the balls to use that as ad copy ? And do you folks actually FALL for that shit ? WTF is "personally cared for" any way.Do they take it home at night and tuck it in then bring it back to the shop the next day ? Buy the DACs flowers ? Dinner and a movie ?

Yep.Makes me look at my own DAC and say "jeez babe.I guess you gotta go sweety 'cause no way I buy flowers for your distorting ass when I can step up to this high toned/high maintainance bitch that is not quite so butt ugly or that shits in dark corners when no one is looking"
