I’ve been watching Paul McGowan on Youtube, I just gotta to give this man so much credits on such valuable info he’s sharing with us audiophaniatics. I do love the guy to death.
I really want to support his business, I really do, but they aren’t cheap either (BHK-300)
Off you go, share your experience with PS AUDIO.

Just a low budget hifi guy here, but I like the old Digital Link III. But I am sure their 6.1 preamp damaged my tube amp. It was a nice sounding preamp, but I'm afraid to plug it in. And I recall the PS guys seeming reticent and worried about that preamp.
So my impression is their products are hit and miss.

I'm just a low budget guy, who buys most equipment used, and my two PS Audio products have been hit and miss.

The miss is the 6.1 preamp. It was having some weird electrical problems, and I do believe it blew out the power supply of my tube amp. I did like the funky touch buttons, and the straight wire passive mode was nice (why don't all preamp have this option?!?). I'll sell it to anyone cheap, if they want it.

My main DAC is the Digital Link III. It has a nice, enticing, warm sound, that I can listen to for hours. Digital usually tires me out in an hour. 

My only complaint about the DAC, is that there is a very low hiss in the right channel. I can't hear it when music is playing, but I have to get it sorted because it drives my OCD nuts.
