    This is false, the guys spend a lot of time writing their reviews manually and we have done so for 15 years. To each to their own, if you dont like Louis's style no worries but to claim it is Ai is completely untrue.

    Introducing ONIX Mystic XP1 – High-End Portable DAC/AMP

    Words alone also make me tired from writing lol :) What I will probably do when I finish the D16 review is add an addendum on the PB5 matchup and post it here instead as ONIX might claim it unfair for being in the review since you could stack with their higher-end amps with the XP1 also and...

    The D16/PB5 stack would be a lot more expensive though than an XP1 alone? Maybe 40% more and for that additional I would expect a better performance. I get the curiosity on the DC match-up though from a purely observational experience.

    Ah sorry brother, I don't have the M11s with me, one of the other reviewers in our team did that one.

    The recession is circular. It's beefier on the lows compared to the H7.

    I still see a lot of support for MQA-CDs in the Asian hifi markets, though never personally encountered one.

    Officially no MQA support, hence MQA in TIDAL. I have been informed by iBasso that it will handle MQA via TIDAL in the app if required. Will tighten that up so no misunderstandings. For BT transmission I said the three codecs tested were LDAC, SBC, and AAC and not it 'only' has those codecs. :)

    There is a direct and in depth comparison between it and the h7 on page 3 of our review.
