So been getting upgrade envy lately with some of the latest products returning amazing results - but it had me wondering is it worth it - is there a baseline acceptable performance a product should meet and anything else is just chasing numbers ?
Two things :
1) the sound from my average scoring SINAD desktop dac/amp is much better than my higher rated portable dac/amp for both IEMS and on ears.
2) aside from sound signature, is there any audible difference between last years 90s SINAD products to this years 100s SINAD products ?
Seems to me that the measurement reports should be compared to baselines rather than other products . And @amirm recommendations are really saying " there is nothing technically wrong with this product" after that consider its design , features and warranty, read the subjective reviews or listen to it to decide if its right for you.
