That looks quite interesting. No DAC mentioned?

I've seen that model with 3 different names on it. I'll see if I can find them again.

Hmmm... there definitely seems to be more than a passing resemblance to Fiio's firmware, in terms of menu appearance...

On the yescool page there were 44 feedbacks and 5 star overall rating so it must be half decent. It also looks nice in real photos.

Very interesting. Looks like the newer, hipper and more advanced brother of the AIDU AX8 player.

Can you please post the link for the yescool site, I can't seem to find it.  Thanks.

Honestly can't remember the search term I used to find it yesterday but it's eluding me now. I'll let you know if I find it again.

I was searching from ZhiShan player last week in taobao and noticed this player. It took me to this link. Not sure it's the same -

I bought it yesterday from Penon and they send to me an e-mail asking if it was fine for me to have this player as it only come with English and Russian languages, so i suppose that this version could be for russian market....

It is  pretty cheap for all that it does, I hope the price stays the same,  I am waiting for your impression in a couple of weeks, penon audio ships quite quickly so it will arrive

This X10 looks like an X1 clone. Same specs. Same software. Even the icons are the same. Perhaps it's a copy-cat hardware running the X1 software ?

The software of Nintaus X10 does seem to be the same as the Fiio dap's, but I also came across another dap on Taobao with the same software, so it is not an isolated incident. Either the software the Fiio's are running is openly available or they are being copied.
 
The X10 claims native dsd, which X1 doesn't have, this would require an additional dsd decoding microprocessor, but the X10 mentions no DAC, so I am certain it doesn't use a good dedicated DAC, while the X1 uses the quite decent PCM5142, this requires an additional LPF opamp.
 
The X10 has a line out, which X1 doesn't have, this would require an additional line out opamp, but if the DAC quality of X10 is mediocre then the line out is a bit pointless imo.
 
The power output of the X10 is similar to the X1, around 80mW, not a very strong showing.
 
So from what I'm seeing the X10 is like an X1 but has sacrificed a good dac for a native dsd decoding chip, and sacrificed the LPF opamp for a line out opamp, not what I would call good trades personally. But this is all speculation based on the specs, I could be wrong.

Any chinese DAP's with the same sound quality and storage capability as Fiio X5 but at a much lower price?

Are these players just copying the look of Fiio's software or are they actually running Fiio's software?
 
Also does the Breakpoint feature act like a bookmark for multiple files or is it just a resume for the last played file?

Would like to read a head-fi review on the Nintaus X10. Do these come with any warranty?
