Oh I did quote Asahi's email with Burson on that, no doubt the Fun is not the Play without DAC. It's also noticeable from the specs difference between the 2, but I do think they share some similarities.I spoke with Burson and the fun is not just a play without the DAC. I also personally prefer having separates so you can upgrade one part over the other.
I look forward to trying the Fun with my Aune S16 too. The S16 is a terrific DAC but it comes with a $15 integrated amp. Pairing the S16 with the Play's amp unit would have been great (if it were possible), but now we've got the Fun.
