In Reply to: a lot of talk about Gustard X20 DAC PRO ES9028, but... posted by paco on December 29, 2016 at 01:34:37:
The ESS 9018 ultimate model sounds very good and exceeds value for money. As for sonic attributes, this will be system dependent but I hear no vices when compared to $2000 US dacs.
I shall have a chance to hear the 9028 model early next year. The design approach seems very good, although there is no advance on the old model other than the availability of more filters and functions due to the dac chip..
