A great review of the BorderPatrol ZOLA DAC by reviewer (and owner) Ken Redmond of Tracking Angle.

 

With the Zola DAC in my system, I listened longer. I stopped skipping tracks. I found myself revisiting digital files I had been avoiding—not to analyze them, but to reconnect with them.

And that’s the difference that matters most. There’s gear that impresses you. And then there’s gear that changes your relationship with music. The ZOLA did the latter for me. Ken Redmond, Tracking Angle

 

And if, like me, vinyl is your baseline, this is one of the few digital sources I’ve heard that speaks a similar language, and it now sits in my main system. Ken Redmond, Tracking Angle
