The WXC-50 has a dac built-in capable of decoding dsd 2.8/5.6MHz & PCM 192kHz
It's USB input only accept storage devices, and it is not meant to accept USB data from PCs.
It does have a switchable fan built in.
Default is ON.
Can only be switched off via MusicCast Controller App on smartphones/tablets.
Sound quality is quite good though.
Dynamic and clear. Soundstaging can be quite spacious.
Couple of Recommendations:
- Default setting is [Bookshelf Speaker] Mode.
Need to set it to [Floorstand Speaker] Mode to bypass the High-Pass Filter to sound its best.
- Make sure you check AC polarity.
All-in-all, this thing is dirt cheap. But perform very well against more expensive competitors.
Compared to the Auralic Altair (nearly 6 times the price of WXC-50), the WXC-50 sounds way way better, more dynamic and opened.
