not time. xd05pro will go beat grands fiio q7,shanling H7,ifi gryphon,ifi signature,ifi diablo.Only time will tell.
i have xduoo desktop hybrid ta-22. want some small dac/amp from xduoo. does good upgrade to xd05 bal or xd05 plus nowadays?Maybe, if they want to beat them they have to be cheaper, and Fiio Q7 is $700.
decided not see more to portable dacs for my desktop immeddiatly, afer tried new tungsol 12au7w tubes on my xduoo ta-22 vs stock tubes,with focal stellia headphones. end game. no any portable can match this sound...no any EQ needed or tried. DotSomeone told me xDuoo said at a japanese meeting that the XD-05 PRO will be released in May... Still no word about the price.

sound much better with new tubes vs stock.never look back to stock cheap tubes. also with good headphones feel difference.Sound is much better on this tubes or just better match with Stellia?
i have focal stellia headphones.not need big power to drive,so maybe xd05 bal or xd05 basic v2 with new ess chip es9018k2m is bestter or see at xd05 plus? but i like neutral sound from ESS chip vs warm from AK chip.If time isn't an issue you should wait for the release of the Pro version to know its full specs and price, then you can compare to the other models and make a decision with all the available informations.
$1200 Canadin no way $900 USD IDK about that sounds high for a XDUOOThe XD05Pro will be in under CNY $6000 (RSP) in china
how much in eur?The XD05Pro will be in under CNY $6000 (RSP) in china
Really? I hope Xduoo will have success with the XD05Pro, but I don’t expect many to sell. Maybe in a few years we will see this come down in price. Most of us will likely only be able to live vicariously through those who can purchase.The XD05Pro will be in under CNY $6000 (RSP) in china
That's around €800 or so. I'd expect a little more with duties / taxes e.t.c.how much in eur?
If it's in the same price range as the Fiio Q7 and Shanling H7, then I think it will offer an interesting alternative. The op amp rolling in the XD-05 range can make a significant different to the sound quality / performance. Add to that the option to change DACs (for a fee, I'm sure), and the PRO seems to offer something unique. I'm looking forward to its arrival. My finances aren't!Really?

Oh, I agree that it is a fascinating product with unique features! My issue with it (besides its size) is the price, which I think will limit its sales. But as I mentioned, I really hope it does well, and one day it comes down in price. In the meantime, I hope others buy it and share their experience with it!If it's in the same price range as the Fiio Q7 and Shanling H7, then I think it will offer an interesting alternative.
