Topping D50 vs the "Big Boys"

This low-priced DAC measures spectacularly and has the latest ESS Sabre DACs. Has anyone listened to it versus the "High-priced spreads"?

Hopefully it sounds spectacular too, and comes with a return policy if it doesn't sound good in your system. If so, it's worth a try.
