Checkout Gustard U12.

Hi thanks a lot for the very helpful hint.
Yesterday evening i tried the Gustard U12 with my Android 4.4 media player and USB Audio Player Pro and it works !
The Gustard was just out of the box but if the U12 is as decent as i read here and there i think that the ensemble can make for a quite decent digital source for almost nothing.
Stupidly i have not tried the spdif out of the media player. Maybe it is just as good.
In the weekend i will stream some files from the Nas and listen.
I wonder why the people intrigued by stripped down HW and SW they do not pay attention to Android based media players.
I cannot think of a slimmer system.
Thanks a lot again. Have a nice day !
Kind regards,

Android is all but stripped down.
It is as bad, perhaps even worse, then a standard Windows installation.
There is a huge amount of processes and services sitting in the background.
Google hasn't put much emphasis on (USB-) audio. There have been many issues associated to audio all the time.
USB Audio Player Pro solves some of them at least.
I use my LG G3 as mobile mp3 player or (aptx-) bluetooth source and squeeze remote control. I'm not using it as serious audio source.
Hi and thanks a lot again for the very valuable reply.
You say that " I'm not using it as serious audio source "
I guess you have tried it with your good rig already and found it inferior
I can tell you that i cannot tell the difference between this cheap chinese media player using USB Audio player pro app and a better win 7 pc using the same downstream system.
In both case the signal is taken out of USB ports of course and sent to a usb dac.
Maybe this is the point ... the resolving ability of the downstream equipment.
But if you have tried in your best system i trust your judgement completely.
I will go back to a normal pc.
Thanks again.
Kind regards,

Hi thanks for your kind reply.
I have one and i will do it for sure. Not connected yet: still in the box.
I did not think of it because there is a small cd with drivers i suppose.
I will try it for sure.
Thanks again.
Kind regards,
