    Hypex Ncore NC252MP market overview

    Yeah I am indeed from the Netherlands. Boxem is out my budget, it is for a desktop set of ls50 meta. The amp will be hidden from sight so the looks are not that important. A working power button is thought

    So far they are great. Havent put much time in setting them up perfectly yet (they are not on a stand or anything yet). The bass, for nearfield, is far better than i expected. I dont think I am going to add a sub anytime soon.

    Cool thnx for the replies. Any news on the AKM Vs ESS version of the device? I read a couple of pages back some are using an ESS dac, but haven't found anywhere if it is close to spec, or whether it has the dreaded ESS bump

    USB hub / KVM switch

    Does it matter at all? I am not into the snake oil 500 bucks hubs, but is there something you need to take into account when looking for them? Would connecting my SMSL SU9 to something like this be detrimental for audio quality...

    Matrix Audio Mini-i Pro 3 Review (Streamer & DAC)

    Roon will cost an extra 10 bucks a month, you will still need Tidal. If you are not going to use roon, nor the headphone output, I don't think it is a great choice. If you are thinking about later upgrading your AMP too, you might want to look for another Matrix Audio device to have an all in...

    Singxer SA-1 Review (Balanced Headphone Amp)

    Thanks for sharing your experience! Have you ever tried with the monitors powered on, to switch from "OFF" to "HPA"? Because I know myself, that is going to happen sooner or later... If it results in a full volume pop that is going to be a problem.
