**********************************************************************************************************
Digital Trends gave it the highest possible recommendation:
"Considering everything it has to offer, the Antelope Zodiac earns our highest, most enthusiastic recommendation. Try and try and we might, we couldn’t find one thing to criticize about it, save for its lack of remote. It consistently brought out the best of everything we played through it in a way that sounded more like live music being made in a real space. Moreover, it delivered the goods regardless of the type or quality level of associated gear. If ever there was an audiophile component that could be tagged as “most able to play well with others,” this would certainly be it. Sadly, the Zodiac’s price of admission will be too steep for many of the folks who would most benefit from it. But if you love music and can afford it, the Antelope Audio Zodiac is definitely worth it. We couldn’t imagine anyone who wouldn’t be pleased as punch with the Zodiac’s way of connecting the listener to his or her music. The Antelope Zodiac is, quite simply, the best DAC plus headphone amp we’ve ever heard."


**********************************************************************************************************
StereoMojo also had some very nice things to say about the Zodiac:
"Is it really worth the asking price, especially for a cheap bastard on a stretch? For the listener looking to get a bit closer to the real thing, then yes, it’s worth the asking price, especially given its multiple capabilities. Most impressive sound-wise were the rhythm and timing of the music as well as the incredible sense of presence and extension of the treble. My only niggle was the slight sense of dryness in the midrange, but this was ameliorated by using the USB interface. Yes, folks, the Zodiac DAC is the real deal and well worth an audition, and proof positive that a little bit more money sometimes really does get the consumer a commensurate (or better) improvement in performance. Well done, Antelope Audio!

6moons gushed:
"Antelope Audio's new Zodiac is an exciting timely entry into the currently very happening scene of USB DACs. Compact enough to fit on the desktop even as monitor stand, feature-rich enough for the most demanding audiophile without charging for a bling enclosure that would do nothing for sonics, this machine telegraphs that its designer Igor Levin understands digital audio at a very high level indeed."
