I want to ask you a question, but before I want to inform you that I am a novice in this field. if someone can explain to me why this dac LA-QXD1 can be better than other dac in the same price range with only one chip ESS 9038Q2M ?
for example :
1-smsl su-8 which shares the same options of the LA-QXD1 (balanced xlr outputs ....) + 2 ESS 9038Q2M chips + remote control + internal power supply for a price of $ 200
2- smsl m300 mk2 which shares the same options of the LA-QXD1 (balanced xlr outputs ....) + a high range ak4497 chip + remote control + external power supply + bluetooth for a price of $ 240
thank you for your answers
