So I'm a pretty big fan of old school tech if it's better than new one. E.g. mechanical keyboards, trackball, tube DAC. Anything else worth mentioning that you know and perhaps is worth buying?

I think he meant a tube amp with a built-in DAC.

You need a bidirectional, 24 needle dot matrix printer. Trust me, I can tell.

So you're with me on the printer?

Tube AMPs are not better than digital DACs.
In fact, they're worse if you care about audio fidelity at all.

Tube DAC / headphone amps are fetishist garbage. Most are chick shit with horrible micro-phonics. Even the high buck ones drop frequencies present in the source.

>>58959841
Perhaps. Tubes are very much old tech though.
As far as quality goes I like them but I suppose that's subjective.
