This. I am sure the Audio GD fans have good reason to be proud of their possessions, and that Kingwa makes a fine line of products. But justified or not, it does come off a bit strong sometimes.

I had a Schiit Gungnir Multibit ($1249) for over three months, using it as a reference DAC for my reviews.
I love Schiit, but I am willing to admit that R2R-11 with a built-in Class-A HP amp stage for $350, compared a Modi MB ($249) with a Magni 3 HP amp ($99) is more like listening to their Gungnir MB into an Asgard Amp ($1498-combined).

Just by the Numbers, R2R-11 blows the Schiit out of the competition. No bragging, just my Opinion. If I were buying a combo DAC and HP amp, Kingwa beats Jason and Mike by over $1100.
