Well that's not cool. "True Balanced Output" is a definitive statement.
Sabaj's staff (Aliexpress store) told me 4.4mm HP output is not truly balanced...

I'm over in the UK, so that's not ideal especially as I've just plugged speakers in.
Some specs were updated.
It is now confirmed that the 4.4mm HP output is indeed non-balanced.
Case closed!
Yes, the 887 is better, but In everyday listening, it's difficult to tell.@BHazard Could you notice any sound difference between a20d and thx 887?
amp is not shared. the 10d uses discrete components. 20d uses tpa6120a2. both are in nested feedback loop.Amir reviewed the A10d 2022 https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...sabaj-a10d-2022-version-review-dac-amp.34918/
I have no doubt the A20d 2022 is going to measure even better. If the amp is shared between models, this should get near 1.5W @32ohm per the review as well (but with a lower SNR than expected).
I feel even better now that I made the right choice going with this.
Only on windows so far also no DSD but had no disconnect issues.Hi, I own a a20d 2022 since a month, sometimes I'm having a strange issue after I play some DSD, the dac starts to randomly disconnect and reconnect itself from the PC (Linux 5.17/5.18) switching modality from dsd to pcm and back to dsd, interrupting the playback. Anyone is having similar problems?
EDIT: Doing more tests, I think is unrelated to the the file format, or the pc, because it seems happening only with very high volume levels (81+)
Have you tried on Windows or Mac? Could be a Linux driver related issue.Hi, I own a a20d 2022 since a month, sometimes I'm having a strange issue after I play some DSD, the dac starts to randomly disconnect and reconnect itself from the PC (Linux 5.17/5.18) switching modality from dsd to pcm and back to dsd, interrupting the playback.

The Linux driver for the USB component XU208* is here from ages and there is no error in this piece of code.Have you tried on Windows or Mac? Could be a Linux driver related issue.
No issues on mine, but I have not tested DSD yet.

Before accusing Linux you should have a look on the pack of shit Windows is.
