I searched and couldn't find anyone thats posted about this, I'm sorry if i missed it..
SMSL M300 Balanced DAC has been unveiled and it looks pretty good so i can see from the specs. Think SU-8 minus the Remote and Sound Color Settings but AKM Chips instead of ESS.
Price: $250 - £200
Specifications
Product type DAC
Inputs: 1x Micro USB XMOS, 1x Optical Toslink, 1x S/PDIF Coaxial
Outputs: 2x Single ended RCA, 2x Balanced XLR
Output level: RCA : 2Vrms, XLR : 4Vrm, THD+N 0.0004%
Dynamic range: RCA : 120dB, XLR : 123dB
SNR: 116dB
USB compatibility: Windows 7 / 8 / 8.1 / 10, Mac OSX 10.6 or more, Linux
Sampling rate/ Bit depth: USB : Up to 32bit 768kHz / DSD512, Optique / Coaxial : Up to 24bit 192kHz
Consumption: 1.8W
Standby consumption: < 0.1W
Dimensions (WxHxD): 70 x 70 x 160mm
Weight: 500g
It concerns me that it runs from a Micro USB, but specs seem pretty great..
Any thoughts as I was thinking of getting it instead of the SU-8
