Isn't this extraordinarily cheap...? I mean you can't buy a used Jolida FX for that...

Ah. But still.

It's what I paid for it, happy to pass a good price on. :)

Would you say this is a detailed or warm DAC?

A lot of detail, but no harshness or brightness.

I wouldn't call it warm, but I guess that depends on what you compare it with!

Thanks Jerry.. I’ll do some online research

Had two of them in the past, highly recommended. If I was still box swapping I'd be thinking about it.

I have fond memories from owning one of these from August 2013 to some time in 2015. I probably should have held on to it as it was one of the few units that could do 192/24 and the sound was sweet through my Squeezebox Touch with EDO plug-in. Good luck with the sale!
