Yeah, no doubt U16 wins. It is an very obvious improvement.

Xmos to me sounded much better than Amanero, and yet the U16 is an immediate upgrade in performances over Xmos.

I can’t wait for the day where these dedicated DSP chips are implemented inside flagship DAP, and expensive DAC....you know...those 20k and so on...still using Brass Pins and ribbon cables LoL!

I am about get another R2R DAC from audio-gd for multi-channel setup. Currently I am doing R2R7 (front channel) + 2 other DAC of different brands, which still work quite nicely. I think if I use all Audio-gd DACs eventually will blend in the sound more, becoming more homogenous. I am wondering if 3 Gustard-U16 can be used for this by clocking them all with an external master clock, and so they will sync all 3 DACs together. (I do know the Gustard is not compatible with Audio-gd)

You can choose only one audio output in time. How you gonna resolve this?
