More dependent on what the analogue circuitry does afterwards...

The DACs are measured after the analogue circuitry.

It's hard enough for most people to notice 1dB, let alone 0.1dB.

I know, but under ideal conditions some people can notice 0.2 dB changes. So the possibility has to be eliminated.

1db isn't that hard btw.

I didn't say it was - I said "most people".

Then there's something unmeasurable that makes some of them sound different. I'll take that Pepsi challenge with two DACs of my choice.
