I bought my Chinese made Gustard X26 Pro on Amazon a few years back. I enjoy the clarity and soundstage I get, particularly using the I2S input. In my room it sounded better than a Chord Cutest and a similarly priced Benchmark.
I just got on Amazon and looked at the prices and I don't think they have gone up on Gustard products since the tariffs.
I assume you all know that you can audition a Gustard DAC at home and if you don't like it you can drop it off at Whole Foods (at least in the US)
