why so....

there are many low-price and very affordable USB DACs in the market....... starting from below $200..??? hey that's really a kiddo price.....

but when it comes to USB to S/PDIF convertor.... it's not looking that good...... entry-level prices

are also higher...... even the newly launched stello u2 is not THAT cheap.....

i wonder why...?? doesnt including a DAC add up to the parts count??... so how come they can make and sell these at such accessible prices... as compared to a convertor....

weird...

anyway i am trying not to spend any money on the system for the moment....... although i have a longgggg wish list of dream components i think i wanna buy.... :P
