That on the other hand looks like the love child between an xduuo and shanling players in all honesty!

Hello. Can anybody offer a chinees dap under 400 euro, that will be better, in SOUND QUALITY, then my Onkyo dp-x1?
Except Zishan DSD and D200+... Don't need android. I need SQ and enough power to drive at least 120 Ohm AKG k612pro.... Please only "one brick solutions". Mojo is already sold as a not suitable for pocket use for me. Thanks in advance...

By the way, Zishan had a brilliant sound from the Line out. From the phone out, the sound was amazingly involving, full and strong. Details were not missed, but I have heard that the bass was not enough concentrated. The highs were not so pure as from line out and not exactly as desired. Maybe the 11th upgrade can solve the problem, but, I think it is just a 1 ancestors utility of 10 to get a properly done upgrade. Mine was even with the problems. One of the buf634 in the output stage was not soldered properly... D200+ has a promising schematics and even aneed ak4497 version. But no the dac mode... I have ordered an i2s input selector board on Ali, to install it in D200 between two boards... But then, in any case, I will have to carry a portable usb to i2s transport... Again then I will have a sandwich... I have sold my Mojo because of that... So looking for a good alternative...

It seems finding a 'one box' solution is incredibly difficult for less than €500. :tired_face::tired_face::tired_face:

I have been eyeing the Zishan, especially without volume dial 4490 version (as build quality has been reported to be iffy, with most problems concerning the volume pot). However, just checked that linked Cayin N3 out and damn, that looks like a great deal for 150$ !

Well, most of the DAPs can't drive K612Pro to good level. But if you need one, I suggest Cayin N5. It has more power than average DAPs.
