iFI micro DAC 2 as good as it gets?


My favorite audio file download label, Sound Liaison, has this to say about the new iFI micro;
If there is one rule that we go by here at Sound Liaison, it is trust your ears.
So when ifi approached us for a sampler to accompany the release of the new micro-iDAC2, we first sat down and gave the device a good listen.
Hearing how faithfully the iFi micro-iDAC2 reproduced our native studio masters, we could not help but feeling proud.
Proud that iFi chose to approach our little label with a request to add the ''sound track'' to the release of such a superb product.
With the micro-iDAC2 iFi is proving that it is possible to obtain state of the art quality of sound in a portable device.
We at Sound Liaison are putting a great deal of time and effort into obtaining the best possible sound.
We are especially particular when choosing and placing microphones, having realized that attention to detail at the very beginning of the recording process pays of, when having to realize the final mix.
iFi is showing the same kind of attention to detail when choosing the components and features in the micro-iDAC2, making the device the perfect companion for our downloads.
So please go ahead, download the files, place yourself in your optimum listening position and trust your ears.

If you have the ifi sampler coupon code, available on the ifi website (audio blog), the files can be downloaded free of charge.
I have a great respect for the little label, and even though iFI probably paid them for making the sampler, I do not think they would back up a product they did not believe in.
Did anybody here have a chance to examine the ifi micri iDAC2?

Common, get real. iFi is not in the same class as more expensive DAC's like Metrum or Chord. They are just a good niche product for headphone users
iFi makes great dac's no doubt. I have one and I like it ton's. However it does not compare to my DA-06 or my Yggy.
I think at its price point it is hard to beat however.
Does anyone know how the micro compares to the Teradak Chameleon? I realize this is a bit of an obscure compare.
