Has Anyone Auditioned an LKS MH-DA004 DAC?

Saw some youtube videos on the LKS dac's (both MH-DA003 and MH-DA004), and I think the dac sounds pretty good.  It would be good to know how it compares with other name brand dacs like Ayre, Hegel, Rega, and Auralic just to name a few.

Is your Oppo 105 a modded unit....by Ric Schultz?

There’s no way you can judge a DAC of this quality through a youtube video. Good luck finding comparisons.

No, my Oppo is factory. But if you’re interested in what Ric has to say about this DAC you can do a search on the Digital Asylum.

@melm  what other dacs do you have experience with?  Please share your comparisons based on your experience.  Thanks.

"what other dacs do you have experience with? Please share your comparisons based on your experience. Thanks."

Almost none.  I am mostly into analog.*  The only other DAC I have owned is a Lavry DAC a while back.  If you want comparisons write to Stereophile; I am not a reviewer.  I have tried hard not to overstate my credentials.  I just took a look at what this thing has inside, read what some others have said, thought it should be good and took my chances,  I can't really compare as I've not had any digital that is close.  It's closer to my analog--with the usual digital advantages.  You couldn't pay me to sit down and compare a bunch of DACs. I'm not trying to sell anything.

*Though this LKS has me trying out old CDs the way my then new phono pre had me trying out old records.  I don't think I did that, to this extent, with other digital changes.
