We Remain Sane.

There's nothing worse than excessive hype and propaganda only in order to convince a buyer to spend much more money on a piece of electronic gear than it is worth. Many argue that it is the marketing that is the most expensive aspect of audio gear pricing. The addition of Parts + Labour + Distribution + Advertising + Showroom Exhibition Rentals + Hotel and Travel Expenditures + Image Design Consultants + Marketing Research = a very high price to pay for good audio gear.

LessLoss keeps it simple. We choose to delete all unnecessary elements from this long equation and to serve the audio community directly with a truly valuable component of the highest possible quality. Only in this way can you enjoy the quality of Hi-Fi without any of the associated politics of false image creation, hype, propaganda, etc. The DAC 2004 is truly created to represent the very best in D/A converter technology possible. The attentive reader will appreciate the sincerity of this.
