Well the comical thing is that they are like someone releasing a Lexitron 10 years after PCs and WordPerfect became ubiquitous.

I've heard of this being used in guitar pedals and that seems like a better use of its tube-like characteristics.

What is a better performing piece of gear at a lower price with the same feature set? I've certainly never seen a credible experiment showing that it's possible to distinguish two DACs, when one isn't horrifically malfunctioning. So my attitude has always been that the feature set is the number...
