Gustard's A22 offers phenomenal price to performance with dual AK4499 DAC chips for just under $1000. At this time there is only one version of the A22, but it is expected that an MQA variant is in the works. The A22 uses a discrete Class A circuit with a power supply that is far...

It features a premium dual DAC chipset supporting dual CS43131 32-bit DAC chips under its hood. It provides full support for decoding high-resolution PCM(32-bit/384kHz) and Native DSD256 audio signals. Dual Headphone Outputs:- FiiO x Jade Audio KA13 ...
and now they’re making a move into dongle DACs with AK HC2. We adore the sound quality, which comes through a dual-DAC system. Compare it to the AudioQuest Dragonfly Cobalt, our top portable DAC pick, and it’s a real contender. It also offers fully balanced audio, which no other ...
‑wise, the Purity employs an internal linear power supply installed along the right‑hand side of the unit with a compact toroidal mains transformer feeding sophisticated balanced ±16.5V regulation circuitry on an adjacent circuit board. Two tall heatsinks cool the voltage regulator chips....
I used to think the ESS version (and ESS chips in general) sounded cleaner, clearer, more open, etc. My stance has since shifted. Here’s a video covering it. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. xD The SINAD Standard And Why It’s So Important ...
chips plus a tube output. I can see why some people are drawn to this thing though, as it certainly is a unique sound that will stand out in a crowd - it would not be easily confused for any of the other DACs on this list. I could build a superb audio system with this device ...
I am not disappointed with either. However, subjectively, the DX7s has more detail, is more neutral in its presentation, and has a wider soundstage. In comparison, while still very detailed, the FiiO m9 with its AK4490 chips is more organic and natural sounding, a little more intimate, ...

(IFs) in the range of 40 MHz can be generated via TxDAC chips. This is adequate for directly transmitting data in high-speed modems and upstream information in interactive set-top boxes. In other applications, it could eliminate an up-converter stage. Here, too, high SFDR, low pric...
