Well - I use them, as you can see a couple of posts earlier...
I've used the DAC1 for about a year - and the ADC1 for just a short while. I'm not that used to real hi-end, so I only have much experience from RME and (do I dare to mention...) Behringer...
Those Benchmarks are by far the best I've used in my small experience of more expensive stuff - and I'd recommend them to anyone. The DAC1 really made a change for my monitoring (ADAM P33A and Sub-10) - and it felt like I lifted another blanket when it replaced monitoring through the DDX3216... The ADC1 is a bit pricey, but damn! it's good.
