DX3 Pro out of stock - alternatives ?

[Kachda]

Thinking of getting a DAC+Headphone amp since I use the apple usb-c dongle at the moment, and I would really like to have something that has a rotary volume control, and can also let me use headphones occasionally. Looking through the reviews, I thought the Topping DX3 Pro was priced reasonably (~$230) and had all the features I want, but I see its out of stock at Amazon.

Is there any good alternative around the same price range ? I would prefer to keep it a one box solution.

hmm what about Khadas tone 2 pro? 199$ no display, but it has a volume control, performs same or best that Dx3 pro.

Thanks. I’m looking at that and the loxjie as alternatives. Will wait for a few days to see if the dx3 pro comes back in stock

Good luck with that: Unless they've redesigned it, I think it relied on audio ICs which are simply not available due to a fire last year:
