Nice review. Sounds like you really like it.Here's a link to their homepagehttp://www.dbaudiolabs.com/
Quote from: richidoo on 5 Dec 2009, 02:59 pmHere's a link to their homepagehttp://www.dbaudiolabs.com/ I'm glad it sounds good because never have I seen so much prose say so little! I also have no idea what bit depth and sampling rate it will decode, no clue as to how quiet or noisy it might be (S/N ratio) and as far as frequency response linearity, I guess that too is guarded information. I do know it's dimensions and weight, though! Steve
I thought the same thing....lots of words for so little said. My generous interpretation of this is that by not getting into the details they are saying to the audiophile community,"look everyone is spouting this and that about the latest digital technology: bits/sampling rate/jitter, etc. etc., we're a smart group of folks who have judiciously assembled several mature technologies and put them together into a package that does music right, and we hope you'll take a listen."

I think whether or not the device will convert the high resolution files on my computer (after all, this is a USB DAC intended for a computer) is most certainly a "detail" that should have been talked about! As far as my previous post, I am not a believer in cryogenically treating circuitry. NASA acknowledges that cryogenics can increase the dimensional stability of metals, however they do not cryogenically treat electronic circuits that go into space. Beyond that, applying for a tradename for an acronym of "cryogenically treated integrated circuits" is IMO pure marketing hype. I have every right to be turned off by their fluff. Steve

Antelope has no real info either. When I go to the website there are lots of specs but no date for availability and no pricing.
What's with these serious negative responses because you don't knowing what is inside this new Tranquillity that I'm getting?

A few details (like what does it play!!) is not asking much.
