Denafrips Terminator Plus vs T+A DAC 200


I currently own the T+A DAC 8 DSD and it's great! But I'd like to upgrade, move the T+A to my headphone rig and place either a T+A DAC 200 or Denafrips Terminator Plus DAC in my main rig. Anybody had a chance to compare these 2 DACs? I know the prices of the T+A and the T+ are close. Unfortunately, there are no used T+A DAC 200's to be found in the USA, but I can find a couple of T+ (used) for almost $2K less. If you've had a chance to hear both of these DAC's I'd appreciate knowing how they stack up to each other? I'm not interested in any other brands. I've narrowed my wish list to just these 2 DACs.

@mewsickbuff You might want to consider one of Denafrips' DDCs (probably the Gaia) which will take the USB from your computer, clean it up and then you can connect the Gaia to the T+ via the I2S cable (I recommend the Tubulus Concentus I2S). My experience with the Denafrips' DDCs (first the Iris and now the Hermes) is very positive.
