My take is that it's decent. Smooth sounding vs my Bifrost.

However, when I heard it there was 2 other DACs... a M2Tech Hiface and a Auralic Vega.

The HiFace was as good as the Bifrost and Teac IMO... and they are all grouped closely together... The Vega was in another league entirely, as it should be.

So, my take is to asses your goals... Are you eventually going to upgrade to something higher end like the Vega? If so, save your money, get something like the HiFace and keep saving for a higher end unit. If not, then maybe the Teac would be a good choice.
