I've been really happy with my Mytek Liberty DAC. I haven't compared to the Brooklyn, but I do have an Auralic Vega (3 1/2 times the cost of the Liberty) and a few other DACs to compare it to. The Liberty is very detailed and a bit "analytical", while the Auralic is warmer and perhaps a bit easier to listen to. The Liberty will do a nice job of bringing out the detail in your music and is very listenable.
