Those are the ADC's, not the DAC's :) THe monitors you have are EXCELLENT, however the DAC is no-where near capable of producing that same kind of quality. If you were to monitor out through something like an Apogee MiniDAC for a Benchmark DAC1---you'll hear a lot more of these differences quite noticeably. In other words, the DAC on the Mbox2 is the limitation here.
