I have the  MP-D2 MK3 and I'll repeat much of what has already been mentioned above.  Organic and natural is a good place to begin. And I will add  relaxed,  detailed  with loads of timbral integrity  when  film caps and tubes are replaced with high quality parts. Garry is a real gentleman and honors his customers with real world audiophile respect. I bought this instead of a Denafips Pontus because I could tweak it without having to breakout my soldering iron,  I highly recommend you give this a listen before dropping thousands more on a hyped up audiophile (forums) DAC (s).
IMHO, after reading the 6 Moon's review of the MHDT Orchid you could easily switch names to the Musical Paradise MP-D2 MK3 as the description appears synonymous. I have not heard the Orchid but they share similar sound design elements though the MP-D2 MK3 is larger and is tube rectified and has APT-X HD for when you're feeling lazy or you just want background music while cooking/dining that can be changed from the dining table. Hope this helps.
