Having used the TACT RCS 2.2x for years it is a great DRC solution. However, I find Audiolense+Inguz a better solution for a variety of reasons - not least the fact that I have one less box betwixt Touch and DAC. Inguz is particularly useful if you have multiple systems... and it is much easier to use its EQ capabilities "on the fly" via iPeng compared to the TACT. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
