Any clock radio that costs less that $4000 is garbage, can't possibly be high fidelity.

I could add my REF10 to reclock the clock in the clock radio, and I’d have a $4000 clock radio!

Or you go and buy that stupid Mcintosh wall clock. $1800. 

Highest performing clock known to audiophiles.

It’s very nice.  It just lacks a little in terms of it’s ability to output sound.

Mcintosh does not care about that. As long as it looks cool. If an piece of audio electronics looks awesome, then it automatically sounds better. 

I’d want to do a double blind test, to prove that it at least performs as a clock.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that.   A DAC is a DAC is a DAC.  I think I have it now.

 

Carry on. 

Does a $5 clock radio have a DAC?

The fine people at Oxford Dictionaries define it as "a flat round base of dough baked with a topping of tomatoes and cheese, typically with added meat, fish, or vegetables."

 

They're too posh for pineapple in Oxford, that's for sure.

Why not, preferably deep fried.
