Exactly the same for the uk, stupid covid, stupid Brexit.Exactly.. I send an email and they don't know anything about availability.
13 Days update: After trying both X16 and D90 alongside with both Arya and Clear, RCA and XLR, etc etc...After 5 days I have received my X16 from China to Spain, I'm still testing it but so far so good, anyone needs anything feel free to ask. I think it is better than my other DAC the Topping D90.
Regards

I take back my words, I find no difference at all between the two of them, identical sound, transparent.
That is exactly as it should be. Both are perfectly audibly transparent and there would be no reason to expect otherwise. Glad that you found that out. As suggested early, at the current state of decent DACs coming out, it is about features, design and price.13 Days update: After trying both X16 and D90 alongside with both Arya and Clear, RCA and XLR, etc etc...

There's no difference in the final result as long as you are able to decode it. The exception is that when you pass the complete intact MQA stream through spdif/coax where it needs full decoding in order to work at all.Hello
i will receive my X16 tomorrow and i'm really excited.
Can someone tell me which is the best way of connection the X16 to a source in terms of MQA rendering?
I saw that there might be a difference in MQA rendering wether you connect it via I2S/Coax or USB? Or is it the same?
First of all, make sure the voltage switch is in the correction position before you plug it in. I thought my unit was DOA but it was user error...Hello

USB gives you the most options in case you want to experiment with deciding vs rendering. I need to do DSP so I'm only using it to render.
I am so very happy that I got into this beautiful hobby where you can get amazing performance at a very low price....
How do you find the soundstage and 3d character in comparison? 2 chips usually have slightly more soundstage.13 Days update: After trying both X16 and D90 alongside with both Arya and Clear, RCA and XLR, etc etc...

If you want free soundstage and 3D/Holographic music, install dolby headphone and channel mixer DSP in foobar2000. Both chips are equally transparent, which is the intended design I guessHow do you find the soundstage and 3d character in comparison? 2 chips usually have slightly more soundstage.
lmao
3 chips are even better! 1 by dimension, sorry for the joke, too tempting....How do you find the soundstage and 3d character in comparison? 2 chips usually have slightly more soundstage.
