From a Stereophile review written by Jon Iverson:

This is a DAC you have to hear
"I've listened, through my system, to the Musical Fidelity V-DAC, the Arcam rDAC, the Rega DAC, the YBA Design WD202, the HRT Music Streamer Pro, the Peachtree iDac, and the Cambridge Audio Azur DacMagic. All cost under $1000, and each is a good-sounding DAC with a subtle yet unique sonic signature.

Of those mentioned that cost less than $500, I would easily reach first for the DAC•iT.

All of the DACs in this list have little blemishes in various spots, including the DAC•iT, but the Peachtree's flaws are more than buried under the sheer beauty of the music it makes. With other DACs in its price range, I've always sensed a subtle cheapness to the sound, but not with the DAC•iT. (Both the Musical Fidelity V-DAC and Cambridge DacMagic have since been released in revised editions that I haven't heard, so you may want to check them to be sure.)

Manufacturers put their preferences out there for the public to hear, then cross their fingers. Peachtree Audio clearly knows what they're doing, and their DAC•iT is incredibly enjoyable to listen to. The guys at Peachtree are apparently fussy listeners, and in this model their fussiness has paid off.

Hope springs eternal among thrifty audiophiles that a $500 DAC will get them all the way to $20,000 sound. I'm not sure that will ever happen, but if you're spending under $500, or even up to $1000, this is a DAC you have to hear."
