Antelope Zodiac Gold - anyone have or heard one?


Hi - I'm looking to hear from folks that own or have heard the new Antelope Zodiac Gold DAC. I'd like to hear their impressions on it and how it might compare to the Zodiac+, Weiss DAC202, and Metric Halo LIO-8 in particular.

Thanks,
Kevin

I have heard the AZG Dac and it sounds fantastic. I haven't heard the Weiss or Metric Halo.
Another DAC you might keep in mind is the Burson HA-160d.
It's been getting rave reviews and 6Moons has made it their referance DAC.
And it's quite affordable.
I heard Zodiac Gold + Voltikus at Drugs Audio in Hong Kong.
As DAC by connecting with Nagra CDC, ZG was better than the DAC section of Nagra CDC.

A friend of mine went there later & compared ZG vs Weiss DAC202 (both as DAC & fed by Nagra CDC) and found that they were on par in general but ZG had a more involving character.
Thank you guys. Wow, I find it interesting that Ckkeung's friend found the Zodiak Gold to be equivalent or somewhat better than the Weiss DAC202 - that says a lot!!
