The Audio GD R7 HE with power regeneration is a incredible dac I heard this with a pass labs amp ,with 4 Big R core transformers the most comprehensive R2R ladder dac I have heard to date 
and being in a tri state audio club I have heard very good products from top Denafrips, Holo springs May KTE , and briscati ,and this dac uses FPGA and a firmware upgrade port ,and external 10 MHz for top master clock future add on upgrade , It literally has 7 true sonics choices 4 non over sampling including a vinyl mode, and 3 over sampling .I have never seen any dac this extensive 
And  truly Taylor’s  the sonics to your system and taste ,and the first power regeneration I have ever seen in a dac ,or any gear for That Matter. I bought their Excellent G8 mk2 dac, for this year did not have $5 k this year maybe next year though.
Double Dolphin gives you some information with testing behind it.
Although the chip he seems to favor is the AD 1865 as found in the Audio Note and the Audio Mirror.
