Teac UD501 DAC Review and Measurements
The Teac UD501 is an interesting product for several reasons, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a great option to purchase.

Measurements of the Schiit Yggdrasil A2 DAC and testing if there are any differences with the infamous warmup of this DAC.
The Ferrum OOR is an incredibly powerful but compact headphone amplifier with a unique design that promises to drive hungry headphones to the fullest extent.
The Lotoo PAW6000 sounds phenomenal, it’s built beautifully, and the software and features are a joy to use. This is an exceptionally well made product and just about everything there is to say about it is very positive. I would like to see a little bit bigger soundstage, but the exceptional detail, timbre, and overall tonality more than make up for it.
The Bel-Canto E1X is perhaps the most comprehensive ‘all in one’ product I’ve seen. And has everything you need for your setup
The dCS Bartok is a ‘summit fi’ level DAC with a hefty pricetag of £12,500. But whilst the performance is great in many areas, others leave some questions unanswered.
The Terminator plus is a high performing R2R dac and the flagship dac in Denafrips’ product range. Now that I have a unit in-house I wanted to get a full set of measurements completed.
The Mutec MC3+ is a reclocker with some interesting features, but performance and build that leaves one to wonder if the price is justified
The Gaia is a great DDC with perhaps the most comprehensive featureset of any I’ve tested. It’s a great match for the Terminator.
