The tonal balance is very even handed and makes some other DACs sound a bit thick and blurred, but if you prefer a warmer, smoother sound then this might not be the converter for you. That said everything depends on the signal and the source providing it as well as the loudspeakers and amplification, the Reuss doesn’t have a thin balance but it doesn’t fudge the issue either, it tells it like it is. And it tells it in pretty compelling fashion.” — Jason Kennedy Full review can be found here
