I have (had) Fiio X3ii, Fiio X1ii, iPhone 7 with 3.5mm jack dongle, Walnut V2, AGPtek M20 (Benjie S5), Ruizu X02
summing up from my own experience plus what i've read from other threads: Zishan DSD > Xduoo X3 >= Fiio X3ii > iPhone 7 w/ dongle > Walnut V2 > Benjie S5 > Ruizu X02
since I no longer have the X1ii, and from memory i rated it between iphone 7 and benjie S5, but cannot really say fo sho how it compares to the 'Nut.
and I am curious to find out where does the Xduoo X10 stand in the above chain of comparison?
Hmm I preferred the sound quality of the walnut over the xduoo x3. It drives my earbuds, majority of iems and cans with overall more resolution and clarity.
I don't know what dac and amps the xduoo x10 is using but, you could compare those to the internals of other daps and get an idea of where it stands.
