I would say that the Move and TBH are comparable in price and quality. Not that long ago TBH was $269, then $199, now $149 plus $10 shipping. Move is $240 shipped I think. Both are DAC/Amp combos, cross feed, high/low gain settings. Some difference in features and pluses/minuses for each.

I prefer the sound of the Move, so to me it is a bit of a step up in sound quality, and the TBH is a bit of a better buy if the difference is dollars is important to you. To me the difference in cost is small for the improvement in sound. It is all very subjective, which is why I bothered to get them both and compare them myself. I wanted to see if I could hear enough difference to cause me to pay more money.

Any of the top 10 amps in Skylabs review without a DAC will service you. It depends on what features you want and budget.

I think this new generation of amps are really improved over what was available a few short years ago, and they are less money.
