DAC/OPAMP brands are a retard magnets, best performing devices use multiple DAC channel signal comparison to filter out noise, and stack pretty simple OPAMPs like 20x 1612 or 1656 OPA in nested feedback circuits, these configs totally rape audiophool shit like muses or sparkos despite them having better stats on paper, as literally nobody implements them in a proper way to take these advantages.
