The Six Moons.com review on the Mhdt Labs Orchid DAC just went up


This morning the review on the superlative Mhdt Labs Orchid DAC was just posted on Six Moons.com.  It gives all the details why I have made it my reference DAC.  I also share my position, with flexibility, that all all the hype regarding high resolution formats as being superior sounding to 16/44.1 kHz or 16/48 kHz R-2R ladder DACs is just that "hype".  

Hope you enjoy the review.

Just a note of support for Teajay
he was spot on with his analysis of 
the pass and LTA products in the past As I am certain his liking of the Orchid is valid.
in life intentions is the name of the game
I believe TeJay’s intentions are sincere

I was looking around for a few months at DACs ..was pretty set on a denafrips pontus or ares..even sent an email out to get the purchase going but..I read the 6moons review and decided to pick it up
no regrets..great little dac....I'm a kinki ex-m1 owner also..
I appreciate teajays honest reviews...

Ok, i had a Prism Sound Callia DAC and decided to get the Orchid. The Orchid was comparable to the Callia (although the Callia is pricier) and i would say somewhat better sounding over the Callia although the Orchid does not have a headphone or volume control. Also, the Orchid does not upsample and is based on a single tube output. I do not regret the change especially since changing out the Phillips 1541 A for 1541 S1 single crown. The single crown S1 is richer, deeper bass, more depth, improved imaging, soundstage and clarity..    
Where does one get the single crown S1?
Last I checked Ebay has some listings.
