Mojo Audio Mystique EVO
A new review is out in Head-Fi:https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/mojo-mystique-evo-pro-d-a-converter.25088/Just in case you’re wondering Taylor02, we’ve replace quite a few Bricasti DACs. IMO there is no comparison between Delta-Sigma and R-2R.The ...

Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD
I believe the quality of a recording is something like over 80% the quality of the original master and less than 20% the specific digital format and resolution it is released in.
