"The X-DACv8's technical performance is right out with the very best available at any price. When compared to a kW25, apart from a different noise ratio, the X-DACv8 equals it in almost every department.
Sonically the X-DACv8 is virtually indistinguishable from the kW25. Only in the finest, most exotic, most expensive and most powerful system will the differences between the X-DACv8 and the kW25 become apparent.
When the technical performance and sound quality are coupled to its competitve price and multiple inputs including USB and X-DACv8 offers extraordinary value-for-money."
