[QUOTE="user 1447, post: 394699, member: 1447"] its not about the equipment - its about how your ears work and the waveforms of each format ie analog is a continuous wave while digital is not ie its in the form of steps which roughly follow a similar pattern to a sine wave but in a blocky form hence to make the digital signal get smooth and continuous it is converted to analog using processes like sampling and oversampling and sometimes dither and quantization heres a link with bit more info about it - but this is a very simple explanation - you should search more in google for more info [url=http://news.cnet.com/8301-13526_3-9808539-27.html]http://news.cnet.com/8301-13526_3-9808539-27.html[/url] suffice it to say that everything you hear is analog and even digital formats have to always be converted to analog so that you can actually hear it so anything that claims to be digital will still have some type of DAC contained therein [/QUOTE]
