That looks very nice and seems like a good deal based on the specs. It's nice to see Teac making something other than micro systems and such like again.

I guess not seen as it's not for sale yet but no doubt reviews will be coming out soon.

Nope, not me. Think It's only just arrived - July release. Can't find any reviews, although haven't looked very hard. On spec seems too good to be true for that price.
With the MDAC coming along presumably at £399 I wonder how these dacs will compare to dearer offerings like the Mtech Young, etc.

read a review of the young which quoted a launch price of over £1200
3x the price of the mdac.

I believe the Young can be had for around 900? Don't quote me on that mind . . .

That's what I was thinking.
It would be nice to find out a bit more about the output stage and whether it's discreet or uses opamps. I'm guessing at this price point it will be opamp based.
