Looks really well built and I like the size and design. I wish they would turn it on and show the UI.

It screams "I am made for desktop, don't you dare try to put me in your shirt pocket, I will tear it apart!" :D Yes, it is a nice desktop design.

We use the XMOS chip to integrate DSD512. It isn't the CPU that is required but to bridge to the CPU and we use XMOS.

I wonder if both DACs will be used for SE mode. How is it for DX220?

My main question is actually is the software stability. The reason I sold my DX220 was the some horrible bugs like losing one channel when switching DSD <-> FLAC, or hearing loud noise over the audio, and it only recovered with a restart. Is software now stable on DX220?

I didn't see them every time but maybe 1 out of 10, maybe more. I don't remember exactly, it was last year. I was doing many DSD512 tests. As far as I remember, I didn't install any other firmware.

Anyway, I am _thinking_ of getting the MAX but also keep the M15 for a portable solution. Let's see when and if it will hit the shores of EU.

Anyone in EU importing DAPs from Asia, like Singapore, and can recommend a reseller I can trust? I am thinking of preordering from Jaben.

I ordered mine from Jaben Singapore but shipping to US. Uncle Wilson and Ban are great people so you can trust them.

Its smallish, portable in a bag, super powerful, streams Qobuz, has separate analog and digital sections and prob loads of MOD potential to turn it into a super powerhouse....

BUT what really sold me was the marketing video! I can literally feel the commitment, passion, sincerity and efforts put into development from the Engineer when he was speaking although he only had one facial expressionless throughout the video.. :smile:

Definitely go with Jaben ! Recommended for your shopping
Isn't the DX220Max also sold in the US? Or is there a difference between the one sold in say Singapore?
Max is selling globally but the Chinese site is not too friendly, dealers who speak English can help out too. Main website isn’t listing it up yet ?
