Simple, efficient, and low cost

Best DAC, for the price. I put it on my computer and try it with the analogue output to my amp, the sound is alive, very good soundstage, and nice mid. With toslink and a DAC from 1980 as teac, it working very good to. Did not try it in 5.1 but in stereo, working flawless and very musical. Forget expensive DAC, i benchmark it with a 3k$ DAC, and the difference did not worth the investement for the 3k$DAC, i prefer this one. This is the best thing to use with your computer. Very easy way to convert computer in multimedia central device and forget the CD player and dvd player. Basic, simple, efficient, computer, USB cable to go, toslink in receiver and voil, you're done. Very enjoyable device. JazzbeQ recommanded Only downside, work only at biterate 48khz, except that, perfect
