As far as I can tell, the DAC in the Prime is better than the DAC in my G91A. Given how much Meridian has promoted its apodizing filter technology, I would think the difference between the DACs would be obvious when listening through headphones.

So for $2000, I'd sure like to be able to make use of the DAC in the Prime for my large collection of CDs, DVDs, DVD-As, DADs, etc., without having to rip them first to my computer.
