Hi All
So I decided to make a thread on the Pioneer XDP-100R, I know there is already a thread since its announcement at IFA but there has been very little talk about it and since getting my hands on it, I can't see why mainly because I am loving it.
I have owned the OPPO HA-2, and despite the same ESS 9018K2M DAC in both the HA-2 and the XDP-100R, I find the XDP-100R to sound just that bit better and also I had hiss when I used my Fidue A83 with the HA-2 but when using it with the XDP-100R I have zero hiss at all. Plus the fact it has Dual MicroSD Cards and stock Android 5.1.1, in my opinion makes the XDP-100R stand out from a lot of other players like Fiio & iBasso.
But hey guess opinions are opinions, and some people will like it and some will not.
I will be writing a review very soon and most likely be out on Head-Fi by the end of the week.
Below is my unboxing & overview:
Just hope this player gets a bit more attention as to be honest I think it deserves more than it is getting at the moment.
