8 Reasons why you should buy an $50,000 DAC

Penned some thoughts on my experience of why I invested in an Uber expensive DAC and how it turned out (more to come) , https://audiofool.substack.com/p/8-reasons-why-you-should-buy-a-50000

Hopefully you find it entertaining.

Brickbats, bouquets and anything in between most welcome.

Another reason is that you did not have the scratch to buy a $100 k DAC.

If you have to spend $50,000 on a DAC too get great sound ...You have a big problem. I mean if you cant be happy with a DAC from Mytek, Aurender, or DCS you have missed the boat entirely and your not looking for sound your looking for ..."hey look I have a $50,000 DAC" .

Give me two identical room...

In one non treated and without acoustical mechanical control i will put the 50,000 bucks dac...

In the other room i will create an acoustical control  for  the same  system but with 5,000 bucks dac well chosen ...

 Guess which one will sound extraordinary ? 

 

Investing in gear piece without understanding acoustics is useless ...
