I have had mind for a couple of weeks now and I think it sounds flat wonderful. I think this is going to be on a lot of "bargain of the year" lists.
Just returned the one I had after a week,bought it to try to spring some life into my old Pioneer Elite player,no improvment at all. Made in china and very cheap,the power cord is the type you get with a $50 cell phone.Im sure it would work great on a PC,as for it being a "GREAT BARGIN"....buy one,look at the way its made,have a listen, and you be the judge.IMHO the only people calling this thing a bargin are the ones selling it.I have a Benchmark DAC1 on loan,its twice the price and ten times the DAC,and it will still be around in five years.
Wow. Mine is great, solid, big soundstage. use it with a AR vt-60. and Acoustic energy AE-2's. Micromega transport. Very nice. At the price range how could you bash it?
