DACs and bass response?


I'm auditioning dacs in my system. One (COS) was way to analytical, overall, but had very tight bass. Another (Aqua La Voce) is what some would describe as "musical"  and sounds  terrific in all aspects except bass. My cdp alone does better in that regard. I have monitors and no subs. Can I expect that dacs that are hyper-detailed will also offer tighter bass as a rule?

Totaldac has the best and most focused bass I have ever heard. It is also the most analog sounding digital I have heard.
Capacitance. A look inside a DAC will tell you. If it has allot of electrolytics it will typically have good bass.
