[Sound Eq]

I read that Hifiman 601 and 602 are the warmest DAPS and that is because of the DAC TDA1543 used, I am liking that it has a nice warm sound signature that other daps don't have. BUT it seems the UI and built quality is not on par so I was wondering if there is another DAP that use the same TDA1543 and has the same warm sound. I know that maybe this DAP colors music but in the beginning I am not a fan of neutral flat sounds as I like some coloration in the sound signature that is driven to warmth

Bump!
I wish there was :/
I am currently an owner of the 601LE and it sounds beautiful.
The build quality is just OK and the UI is severely outdated but damn the sound is so great!
I wish there was something like it a DAP or a reasonably priced DAC... [Looking at you CAD...]
