This is completely, utterly and totally untrue. Audio CD format, as ANY
text on the matter will describe, has a rather sophisticated,
multi-layered error detection AND correction algorithm in pace, from siple
block checksums al the way to multi-level cross-interleaved Reed-Solomon
encoding. Whereever did you come up with the notion that there is no error
checking.

Again, totally false. The DAC has no such capability, because no such
capability is needed. The error detection and correction has been applied
LONG before the data ever reaches the DAC.

Check out Pohlmann, "Principles of Digital Audio,", you'll find that your
assumptions are way off base.
