Holo Audio May DAC

Just read a very nice review of this in Stereophile this month and after doing some research it looks like this one could be a very nice option for me.

It's made in China I think (or could be Taiwan?, and yes, I am very well aware that these are two very different countries. ;)), and employs a direct to consumer model to keep the price as low as possible.  This does not worry me after purchasing a Jay's Audio transport from Vinshine Audio and having zero issues.  

Just curious if anyone here has heard one or purchased?  I'm very intrigued.  I know the Denafrips Terminator is another highly regarded DAC with a similar ordering model, but costs a couple grand more than this one.  Considering that one as well.

Thanks

20 days and my KTE is really singing and opening up nicely. Great purchase. Thanks all your assistance/encourgment in my process.

My question?? I'm consoldating my wired Network backbone to repourpse a closet and putting a gigabit 8 port hub, cable modem & router/ all network equip all in one temp controlled location.  

I will  move my Antipodes DX3 server and its USB back up drives to this location but I will then need a streamer(new Roon endpoint) on the rack for KTE to feed via USB.

What comes to my  mind would be the Sonore Optical Rendu with it's elimation of electrical noise (dirty side) for the Optical Rendu (clean side) to be the new streaming roon endpoint. Any one have any experiences or thoughts??? I sent an Email to Tim Conor to see what his thoughts may be.

Thanks in advance for your opinions.
