Here's an interview / discussion with Kuro Houou - A dev who's been doing excellent analysis work on Digital to Analog converters, or "DAC's". We go over the basics of what common issues are, as well as details about how to test yourself and why we put so much effort into making sure people are using the best one's possible. As always, these long-form chats are also available on all podcast services - Just search your favorite app for "RetroRGB Kuro" to listen there instead.
