Very interested in this DAP, thanks for all of the great information. The thread is lengthy at this point so 3 questions with apologies if the answers are covered and I missed 'em:
1) Can the DAP also function as a USB DAC for PC?
2) Will this support digital output to an external DAC?
3) Is QP1R sonically superior to the less pricey QP1 or is the main difference internal storage amount?
Thanks!
1.No
2.Yes
3. Yes, the reference version is more refined in overall SQ compared to the QP1.
I own both QP1R and DXP1 (the higher end version to the XDP-100R). Based on SE, QP1R is definitely sounding better. More musicality, more refined and clearer music separation with a nice sound stage.
What about if compared with the balanced out of the DXP1?
They are not fair comparison since QP1R does not have balanced out. That said, the DPX1 balanced out is sonically better than the QP1R because of the balanced implementation - you get a much wider soundstage and depth to the music which QP1R does not offer. So buy the DPX1 if you want the balanced implementation but QP1R SE mode is very musically engaging itself.

I heard the QP1R at Headroom today, really liked it quite a bit, very airy and detailed, with good bass and sweet mids. Only source along with the mojo that impressed me - the XDP-100R was there too but to me it sounded not much better than what I get out of my iP6 Strange I didn't like this at the London cj,but now I'm a believer I tried the AK range,pioneer,lotto gold,5000 and the Qpr1 was the best sq with my heir 10s just a shame about the ui
