I will still match you. Suggest we throw in a Topping DAC...or maybe a USB dongle converter, to make it more fun if they can’t tell.
If we make it “a charity of your choice” I will do more.

Try leather...wrapped very tightly...and a ball gag as the cherry on top. Makes the DAC sound however you want...
Hey , I do the jokes ok!Sure there are a lot of better transformers out there, but they cost too much for a product at this price point. ."
Don't remind me of Apogee, please. Shame they're not around anymore.Yes, if, in 1993, you needed to drive your apogee Scintillas, you kinda had to get a Krell.
If your post was directed toward me, no offense taken and I credited the original poster at the bottom of my post. I'm not necessarily on one side of the fence or the other (but I am an avid ASR reader and fan); I just thought the Photoshop was genius and hilarious. Obviously, my last post was satirical as well. Kudos again to original poster 617 !!!PS Audio didn’t post that.
dont be a Dick...ffs.
Is that even your own Photoshop?
I would think that the 'wife' reference would have been relegated to self-parody, and reviewers who attempted to use it would be banned by any editor from that kind of copy. However, a recent 'review' of a five thousand dollar McIntosh preamp (really just some subjective nonsense about soundstage, coherence, and lush 'feel' of the music--talk about mixing metaphors) at hometheaterhifi dot com has the following: Even my wife commented that she loved the way it sounded, and we spent many an evening exploring music together on the couch.Finally, a DAC that sounds like a $12,000 vinyl rig! And at half the price too. The wife will surely hear the difference from the kitchen.

Well, I'm glad the folks at Mac are helping out in the family togetherness department! For 5 thousand dollars, I think it's the least they can do.

If you just want cd performance, apple dongle is your friend. It's good, it's competent. Why bother spending thousands for shit???
[sad face]
There is no DAC in Apple's dongle. It's just wired so that iPhone recognizes it as an audio device and sends audio signal from the internal DAC.
It means that you have to buy an iPhone for this to work.
Are you sure that there's a DAC inside a $9 dongle? And not just audio signal sent from the phones internal DAC?
