Hi,Greeni.Friend of mine had the Mytek for a year(home studio).I,ve heard it several times.Top shelf performance.It has the best of both Lavry Da-10 and Benchmark DAC-1(at the same price point).The HF extension is more pronounced(compared to the Lavry ) and it has more upfront presentation.We did small comparison between all three of them.The speakers used :Genelec 8040+headphones(AKG K701+SennheiserHD650).Mytek(together with Jim Williams from the Audioupgrates.com)at some point made DAC for Mark Levinson..not shure which model.To better Mytek(or Lavry and Benchmark),you,ll need to look at Lavry Gold or some other DAC,s used for mastering,such as Cranesong(Hedd192 or Avocet) or Universal Audio 2192 etc. Good luck.
