Hey guys I have some questions about ESS hump.
I am currently running Sabaj D5 with THX 789 stack.
I was looking at reviews here and many times I see "ESS hump"
I assume the ESS hump is a type of distortion that the ESS DAC chip creates
but what does it do to the sound? does ESS hump audible distortion? or
it's something like "distortion is there but it's not really audible and you can avoid it if DAC is designed well"
I am a bit confused cuz some of Amirm's listening test saying DAC is super clean and clear even if there is ESS hump
