Any experience with this amp? I searched on the forum and didn't find anything.

Could it be an upgraded Nobsound NS08E? It seems it's been designed differently though. I know nothing about headphone amps and DACs but I don't like the SNR >90 and have read that the TDA1305T DAC chip is not so good....
I may be wrong but this amp seems similar to the Sense G1, same specs but different DAC and USB

I've been using this for 8-years (XuanZu u2012). It's been a strong DAC, but it's rather limited and very early on it generated a fault with the microphone circuit resulting in a lot of noise that needs muting (don't even know why it has one since you can't use a mic in it).
The tubes generated cracks a few years back so I've replaced them.
Looking to replace the amp as I'm ready to try something new.
