Great review on the Elyes here: http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews2/modwright/1.html

The Golden Gate is simply amazing! I reviewed and own the LampizatOr Lite 7 DAC.

This is a $799 DAC but i also got the Modwright Truth tube mods and it sounds incredible. It does have the new ESS ES9038PRO SABRE DAC chip. This unit throws out a huge sound stage.
