DAC 'Scam' Vid

The TL:DW is that any well made Dac should not be more than $200 and anything above that doesn't sound any better since they all use similar cheap chips to do the D/A conversion. Anything above $200 for a DAC is basically snake oil and theres no improvement in sonics.

Appreciate your insights.

If i gave my resume of audio  sound quality:

--- All pieces of gear by budget limit virtue must be on the same level of quality scale, speakers,dac,amplifier, pre, turntable etc

--- A dac installation cannot replace acouastics control at any price, but the best acoustics control at any price cannot replace a dac either

--- but it is way easier to buy a relatively good dac than to create acoustics balanced controls of a system/room...

--- Those who do not perceive difference between dac must forget acoustics, their hearing  will not be as resolving  as necessary to install mechanical acoustic control of the system /room...

--- Then you must pay an acoustician or live with the illusion that gear upgrade solve all problem... Sorry for you ...

Fortunately for snake oil salesmen and women people want to believe they can hear better than bats.
