The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
Pfft specs, who needs specs, if its apple it must be good. Like their iPods and Macs.Freezer7Pro wrote:

Obviously they can't go listing them. That'd just confuse the majority of Mac users. They'd get all upset and angry.
Lol, I agree..Sup wrote:
bashing, trolling, bashing but no recommendations. Well done guys
In a thread made by a mod.
That's class.
Freezer mate, your awesome DIY stuff leads me to believe that you are fairly inquisitive. However, you seemed to fail in finding the support documentation. Just a few clicks away on the Apogee website. Here is the user documentation - http://support.apogeedigital.com/index. … sers-guide - at the end it lists the specs, although what is given doesn't seem to be as complete as some of the other DAC manufacturer websites.Freezer7Pro wrote:

I saw that. It doesn't qualify as specs in my book. They don't even tell you the basics, not even SNR, something that even Creative publishes.mcminty wrote:
