Hello Everyone,

I am planning to upgrade my DAC Super Pro 707 (D/A Receiver chip CS-8416, D/A converter chip - CS-4398) on a budged, and I have following offers (second hand):

1.Aune X8 XVIII Bluetooth
2.Aune X1S GT
3.Topping D50s

Please advise which would be better option for upgrade.

I will be using BT to connect the DAC to my MacBook Pro too.
Amplifier is Revox B250 + pair of Elac DBR62 bookshelf speakers.


Many thanks in advance for your input.

I have Aune X8 XVIII No bluetooth with Sparkos opamp and XP2 linear power supply. I also have Elac DBR62 speakers.
Your Revox looks like an excellent machine!

I would recommend you the Aune X8 with Sparkos opamp. I think it's the best of the three.

as long as you use bluetooth, it might not matter....

I have the Aune X8, with Sparkos, but I cannot hear the difference everyone talk about
