@davidmolliere how is the dx200 with amp8? I've been thinking of getting a dap that can act as a USB DAC and the dx200 has piqued my interest
It's the best AMP for the DX200, AMP4/S and AMP5 were the previous top performers but really the discrete design of AMP8 (and AMP7 in SE btw) provides unprecedented power to a DAP and that means plenty of headroom and incredible dynamics. I think it does explain the better extension and control of bass, the sparkle of the treble (those hi hats have never been that good) and the massive soundstage expansion (wider but mainly taller and much deeper - layering takes such a leap). There are much more impressions on the DX200 thread, with a lot of insight but that how I would sum the major highlights
