Review:

"As a DAC/Headphone amp combo, it is among the most powerful units I had the pleasure of testing, it will drive even the heaviest loads I know with an ultimate grip and driver control. It is easily in the top 3 most powerful headphone amps I tested and no matter the music I would listen to, a huge power reserve will always remain on tap." - Sandu Vitalie from Soundnews.
