Could you clarify what you meant by this, please, as I think it's a little ambiguous.

Obviously the DAC has to go in an analogue system (i.e., not using DSP speakers, etc.) did you mean changing over to an analogue setup? For those of us with DSPs and processors, this would very likely mean spending at least that amount on the rest of the system, potentially?

Or did you mean the DAC as a source, instead of 30-40k of analogue front-end, e.g. a very very good turntable?
