The mantra was "sell your TT, sell your CD player/digital transport, sell your DAC, come over to the dark side!" What, so that they can make a one time commission on $500.00?
You don't sell a customer one DAC, you sell him three DACS over nine years (or possibly nine months for some) They start you on the cheapy, but you are already aware that there is better. You'll be back at some point.
