Why? Because it finally allows Arc Prediction to sound as it should. I've just compared 4x, 8x and 16x AP, and it seems pretty obvious to me that none of us have really been hearing what AP is really capable of... until now.

I was kind of surprised at the lack of response to this. I guess it was because not many people had actually heard DOAP. But I guess a few more have now. If so, I'd be interested in your thoughts.

Truth be told, I'm still waiting for the real holy grail - Arc Prediction with zero anomalies out of the audio band. But for now, DOAP seems pretty close.

Obvious already but i totally agree!

The sound is so pure and clean.  It sounds so so pleasant to my ears!

Sad thing is that you only now what it is when you have listen to it.

Also it is so easy to do something else during listening without being annoyed

But are you saying a new AP  Shocked
