I just had to send my Tact 2.2X back to the factory for repair. I was using the internal 24/192 DAC. When used with the internal room correction system and volume control, I don't think there is a better DAC out there. So I dug my ART DI/O out of storage to use in the interim. It is not modified. It is very good for the money, but not in the same league as the Tact. I agree with Sean's comments about soundstaging. That was the first thing I noticed. This DAC has much less 3D imaging that the Tact. Can I live with the sound until I get my Tact back? Hell yes! This thing is very good for the money. I'm going to send it in for the mods just for kicks.
