Mine came with wires. but you have to make some kind of connection to the pcb.
Enough room for alligator clips??

You need to solder those to the PCB.

Yes I see that, I’m just not seeing why soldering is necessary. I’ve contacted both Gustard and the dealer I bought it from and they said soldering wasn’t needed for the firmware update. Did you use their programmer or just buy your own and load it yourself?On the last photo, J3 connector is the one for programming. Check my photo from previous page.

It's a pity a lot of these devices - if not all - show their price in other aspects. Cheap plastic knobs to start with. But also the placement of connectors. Not to mention quality control and durability. Some of them are details. Others are more fundamental.An "endgame" DAC for short money.
They refund money back already .. ! it’s up to them to send me or not get it back .. lol .. and I still have gustard original boxAmazon expects you to return it in the original box. I don't believe they send you a return parcel.
Amazon assumes you are honest. They've done that to me in the past-refund the $$ early, but I didn't keep the returned item.They refund money back already .. ! it’s up to them to send me or not get it back .. lol .. and I still have gustard original box

Too bad most audiophiles won't give it a chance. Same with Emotiva amplification.
It seems you are more than well on your way!I guess I’ll never be a true audiophile then (notice the S4’s in the background)

I have the same Gustard X16/Singxer SA-1/LCD-X setup like yours and I'm loving it. For speakers I'm using the IK Multimedia iLoud Micro Monitor and JBL LSR305 Massdrop matched pair version. From the looks of your setup above, your ADAM speakers are not getting much attention latelyI guess I’ll never be a true audiophile then (notice the S4’s in the background)

Whoops that was a typo, they are the Emotiva Airmotiv 4S, not ADAM speakers (and you’re right they don’t get a whole lot of love lately, especially when the kids are asleep). The X16 / SA-1 / LCD-X 2021 is just that great of a combo.I have the same Gustard X16/Singxer SA-1/LCD-X setup like yours and I'm loving it.

Thanks for pointing out about the Emotiva Airmotiv 4S speakers...it sure looks like ADAM speakers at a glance.Whoops that was a typo, they are the Emotiva Airmotiv 4S, not ADAM speakers (and you’re right they don’t get a whole lot of love lately, especially when the kids are asleep).
