Just got the K3 in today. Man, it's so good to have a desktop DAC with a 2.5 mm jack!

Agreed, it is one of very few
Too bad I'm still yet to do tests on the Balanced Jack. How does it sound to you?
Too early to say really - I've only just installed the driver now and listened to a couple of songs but I love what I'm hearing so far.Agreed, it is one of very few

I recently received k3. It is amazing dac. But have one problem with it. Has anyone have tried K3 in windows 10 pc. Don't know why LED color doesn't change when i am changing from 48 to 192 khz or higher. Using foobar 2000. It changes only when i manually set in windows speaker properties - default format (for example 48, 192, or other). Only then led color changes. Does it mean that k3 doesn't recognize input that is coming in from pc? For example i have tried to play from my android mobile using as a usb dac- everything is fine. LED color changes according the input it receives. Why then it doesn't changes automatically in windows 10 pc. So if somebody has this new k3 and tried in windows pc configuration, can share their experience? Other than this little problem i am more than happy with my k3. It is really amazing dac/amplifier.
