RE: New DAC Suggestions

Posted by KanedaK on May 13, 2021 at 22:02:29:
I own Gustard A18 and it's been great so far.
For a more high-end version, check out A22 with discrete output stage and dual AK4499 chip.
that being said, the sound signature of those two is of the extended / neutral type. No chocolate, no sepia tones, so if you like your DAC to give a little warmth, those aren't for you.
