What are the dimensions? Myst have missed something as i dont see it being too big for a flagship atleast in pictures.

It's slim but the screen is 6.5 inches so it's bound to be as big as something like my iphone 12 pro Max

DAC - CS43198

Quad DAC Chips Array
Careful users must have found - a in the FPGA introduction diagram , we
Four DACs are marked. Yes, the DX300 uses 4 Cirrus Logic
Flag ship decoding chip -- CS43198 QFN version of the group point DAC Matrix ,
A total of eight DAC channels, and after each independent 8 LPF
Double parallel to achieve fully balanced output . Multi-DAC parallel, can be effective
Reduced single DAC chip due to manufacturing process and environmental impact
Dispersion type distortion, and greatly improve the sound density and detail performance .

Awesome pricing! OMG CL chips in flagship DAP! My dream comes true!!! I freaking love CL chips! This chip is so wonderful in dx160. To push it further is awesome!
NOS filters! Does it utilize the CL 1x ? Or does it pass external DSP from FPGA ? What about MQA ?

Cirrus logic = iPod = bad sound quality

Dude! Lately you don’t sound like yourself. Is everything ok with you over there ? This CL chips were excellent on dx160, and dx160 could give many players a run for it money. But it was only being implemented in a mid tier engineering level. Have you tried this particular DAC-IC in a properly done Player ?

Yup

many of us remember the ‘wolfson vs cirrus’ wars on head-fi

Kind of absorbed a bit of each others good points over the years...

I did enjoy the DX160 (cirrus) sound over the DX150 (AKM)

Yes, I loved dx160, and always tried to imagine what it could have done in a flagship level :), now it really is in a flagship level, 4x of them, and with independent Power Rails, together with removable amp Modules!! With MangoOS....OMG, and FPGA!

Well I've read cirrus is mostly used in mid to low end daps and with the iPod it had a blt of bad rep. I am skeptical that I can deliver a wow factor. In fact my first Walkman NW-E507 used a cirrus (2005) i sounded good in its time but compare to my WM1A today it sounds rather lifeless unengaging
