KZbin does not lob off everything from 16k. The compression is surprisingly good and is also alias free. Id also say "makes things come alive", "Mojo" etc is pretty misleading. Im nearly always choosing ITB bounces vs converters (lynx, dangerous, Alpha-link tests) ABX. Its programme dependent, and ITB rendering is certainly not "lackluster" if we go by the thousands of chart topping songs that have been mixed and mastered ITB.

I always try to upgrade whatever is my weakest link. So if you think it’s the sound of the room, go for Trinnov. If you think it’s monitoring, go for the Grace. If you think it’s outboard, go for the Tegeler. The Hilo is great for conversion, so probably no need for the HEDD yet.

So your AD converter is what takes the digital signal from your DAW and puts it into your speakers, right? If that's the case, why would you want to color that, if that color is not being added to the actual work, only to your ears while you work on it? Why not always use the cleanest option and add color to the final result instead?

Hmm… lots of variables here so I can’t say for sure… but sometimes the differences are very subtle and the difference between two DACs is extremely quiet (like -85dB or quieter). You could get PluginDoctor and measure your analog loop in real-time. That would help you diagnose why you seem to be getting the exact same signal twice.
