Do you still believe that all proper DACs sound the same? (alien.top)

Or did something happen and change your mind during your audio journey?

I would love to hear.

Sounds like your wallet convinced you there’s an audible difference

Nope I actually built an ab machine and tested with a couple dacs, Topping D90, Schiit Yggdrasil, and the Holo Audio. I couldn't tell the difference between the Schiit and Topping but I could easily pick out the Holo Audio and liked the sound (less analytical, warmer) so I sold the other two. Amp I used is Headlamp gsx mini, Hifiman Arya and ZMF Verite closed for headphones.
