crow,
unless d/a - a/d systems have fallen in price radically, that could be a 
limiting factor. it used to be ( is it still ? ) that increasing accuracy 
cost quite a bit more. plus, what is enough ? 10 bit ? 12 bit ? 16 bit ?  i`m 
not sure if those newer cheap d/a`s that are used in cd players, etc. are 
compatible with this sort of application. may need to fall back to the old 
brute force approach.
best,
