    SMSL M7 2xAK4452 opinions

    I cannot find a review on this. Is it that new or that bad? Looks promising. Anyone know anything about this other than specs? I dont really trust Amazon reviews. All of the audio place I tried to look this up.... no one has a review. Anyone know if the opamps are replaceable? Thanks

    Wanting a DAC/AMP.... no idea where to start

    Personally I did not see a difference between D10 and D30. Nothing that I would have been drawn to for and extra $40
