Highlights
Quality
Great little dac that produces nice cleanclear sound great imaging
Got it for my second tv rather small one and the quality of sound now is just great

Besides it can clearly showed the sampling rate and it has 2 coaxial input
Price
Great value for the price in my books
I dont know if it is worth the price but it is worth the sound
Competitiveness
The dacmagic has a richer overall sound more audiophile than the other dacs in this price range
What a difference even though i am using usb from my computer tidal master recordings really sound as good as vynil
I think it is worth the money i paid however i think it is better to buy a higher class product for pc to hifi integration
The sound quality increased dramatically to my marantz receiver compared to the sound being delivered by a standard pc sound card

Well the sound is maybe a bit too focused on the middle and high frequencies the bass is lacking i find i had to manually add some bass and remove some treble in my receiver settings
