if it's perfect, digital is much more efficient/cheaper and more perfect.

why's that? is someone going to hear them in a musical application? then You
probably don't want perfect as they won't have character or sound good....
if you want perfect, digital is where it's at... simple.
if a digital perfect sine sounds good to you why would you want the 100,000+
fold expense of re-creating something so mathematically simple and sterile
in with analog components?  We now have computers that can do this math,
it's perfect... but do you like how it sounds.
What are you trying to achieve?
