I think this is perhaps the best way to test any components because the differences for some reason are more glaringly obvious when you downgrade than when you upgrade.When I got my outboard DAC I plugged it in and liked the music, compared it to the standard CD output and was pleased, but only pleasantly so. After about 6 months I got the urge to mess around and plugged the CD back in in analog mode. Now I noticed what a huge difference the DAC made.
I think this is just perhaps human nature. If it is then let's use it to our advantage, especially when reviewing.
