Audio Aero Prima Dac

Can anyone comment on the performance of this Dac and, if it will provide most of the benefits of the Capitol player?\
Is it really special??

Happy Listening.

Be carefull, you always hear the sound of the Anagram DAC with the included tube préamp ! and the DAC alone is far better as in the Orpheus One Anagram DAC . Regards from France
