Short Form: A very musical timbre and strong unit. Also dynamic (gross and fine dynamic) very convincing .. Tends slightly to a warm and inviting (me) to a long-term listening. What more do you want ?? Perhaps even the certain magic and physicality can represent only one tube so as just a tube. (Though the small TEAC is very close to this type of reproduction (but tighter and more precisely in acting as a bass tube). I'll try it out and buy myself a high-quality tubes DAC (Pro-ject). Docked on the XLR should again bring an increase to the previous CD player via RCA. I complete this review as soon as the time comes.
Until then: Recommendation - BUY !! The Teac is one of the few value for truffles in almost unmanageable high-end and Hifi bunch !!
