His first impression of the Topping R2R dac is good...  Good sign.  Detailed review and comparison with Harmony and LTA Aero is coming up.  This might be it.

They're now claiming that the $799 price was due to a miscommunication, and that the US retail price is actually $999.

Spec wise on the PCM side, the THD+N of -106 dB is identical to Holo Cyan 2. However, this thing has oversampling mode to choose from and is cheaper than Cyan 2.  I will wait for the reviews and availability in Amazon.
