Which DAC measurements do you like to see next?

[bequietjk]

Would be really cool to see smartphone LG V20/V30 measurements!

fiio q5s! there is a line out unamp module, the AM0 so that the dac topology can be measured separately from the modules.

the am3d THX-78 module is also currently available via their aliexpress store.

This has probably already been suggested: I'm wondering if there is a chance to change this thread to a poll (maybe hosted externally if not possible within the forum)? It would be great if members could just vote for a product or add them to an existing list if not there yet.

I wote for Mark Levinson 360s (PCM1704).
Only one test posted here: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...ts-of-schiit-yggdrasil-v2-dac.3607/post-86611

Topping A50
SMSL M300

I registered just so I could second the Topping A50 (I know it's not a DAC).

Right now I have an Atom/D50s stack, and I'm super curious if the A50 is in the same league as the Atom.

I see the two Cavalli DAC's are now absent from the Monoprice website. I wonder if they have been scrapped outright or if they are just so far behind on production they removed them until they are ready to go?

 

[Kane1972]

The direct links still work though. Here's the cheap one again. Hope this gets a release and measured. https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=38965

My bad, they are hidden in the Headphone Amp section, not the DAC section. Monoprice need to sort that out.

Noted. I was later able to see mention of it on this thread:

https://www.diyaudio.com/forums/vendor-s-bazaar/337859-shanti-dual-lps-5v-3a-5v-1-5a-20.html

My vote also for this PSU testing with a couple of DAC or DAP.

Same. Thirded.

Honestly surprised Topping hasn't sent one, unless there's a new version in the works.

This new Audirect Beam2 seems pretty interesting:

Bakoon HPA-21 headphone amplifier would be very interesting: http://www.bakoon.com/product/hpa-21/

Barkoon is very convinced about their current drive headphone amp with "SATRI" circuit.

Is it me or are there no real THD specifications anywhere? Sure doesn't inspire confidence :/

That's what I think as well, but still I find it very interesting if their marketing is just very good or if there is anything behind the product.

Amir, please remember about that ML 360 ...

This was sent in already for testing.....

Oh, not, not that again. I am knee deep now trying to figure out speaker testing on top of electronics. So hard to find the time....

Great News Amir!
Thank you.
