I bought the product (the RC1572 1st version, not the latest Mkii) from the always friendly Audioshow to replace a 22-year-old AV preamplifier and it completely changed my audio system and its capabilities, and the Dac is limitless. Pure Hi-Fi sound. I didn't expect it (and it still needs some breaking in!). Oh, also, the turntable preamplifier is amazing, I didn't expect it at all (I had already tried three and this one beat them all - sweet, clean sound without any 'flaw'/interference) - very nice! Especially if paired with a good power amplifier (I have an old good H/K PA2400) - I imagine the Mkii will be *even* better!

I tried it with my Parasound 2200 amplifier, it paired perfectly, excellent dynamic image. I highly recommend it, especially considering its exceptional price. Its DAC is a challenge, I connected it to my PC and my Rotel and Pioneer CD players. It also has excellent ease of direct connection with Bluetooth on my mobile phone. It has Ethernet and RS 232 for technical service department. You won't find a better solution for this price for a new device
