So this has been out for a couple of years and the only real review I can find on the darn thing is in spanish on youtube. Guess I'll have my wife translate it for me sometime.

But until then, I was a bit intrigued and interested in it. $190 for a good dac/amp combo isn't too far off prices for what most pay around here. Then you add in a blue-ray player and burner on top of that... it's free functionality. The real question though, in a unit trying to do more than a few things, is how good is it doing those things.

For reference, here is one for sale on newegg.

The unit looks nice, and the specs written out look nice. That doesn't mean it is nice for the price. It could be outstanding or a dud like anything.
