That's hard to say, I have no idea when it will be back for now. Thank you.Can you predict when you guys can get your Amazon Canada account back?

Oh man... I was looking at the Topping L30 again, then spotted this thing. It would truly be the endgame thing for me, but then again the L30 might already be as much as I'd ever benefit from when paired with my current DAC (which already powers AKG K702 nicely on its own, funnily enough). No way to make a comparison beforehand, and anyone else's experience with them doesn't really provide meaningful info given how subjective it is.
I was considering getting only the Zen Dac V2, but its output is not enough power on its own so I would have needed to get a seperate HPA. I also strongly considered LAVAUDIO D600 + Topping A50s. In Europe with amazon discounts you can get the D600 for 150 euro making it a bargain, but the total ended costing only slightly less than the EX5. Moreover getting 1 item meant less wires, and the integrated PSU saves you having another large brick on your outlet.I would take the EX5 just for the convenience of having control remote, xlr out (really nice for monitors) and the Bluetooth, I mean is about 60-80 bucks, and if you really need something more budget there is stuff like schiit stack and zen dac v2
If you've got some cans with an xlr plug and don't want to buy an xlr to 1/4 inch adapter.I wonder if XLR provides any benefit at all if it’s not balanced, why not stick to just a single 6.35
If the EX5 and FH7 sound 'amazing' there's really not much to be gained. Don't keep chasing the upgrade dragon if you can help it!Any opinions or actual experience from folks who have got an SMSL SU-9 or Gustard X16 and think these are better DACs than the Topping EX5 or vice versa?
I have the EX5 to drive my DCA Aeon RT Closed and Fiio FH7 and it sounds clear, natural and punchy to my ears. Btw, the FH7's sound bloody amazing on the EX5, much better than the Aeon's!
Now that I have a bit more to spend, I wonder if the grass is greener with the SU-9 or X16 connected to a dedicated headphone amplifier.
What more do I get in terms of sound from these DAC's in comparison to the EX5 with regards to the headphone and IEM I am currently using and love!
Thanks
P.s. I have probably spent over 20 hours researching alternative DACs over the last 2 weeks but still not sure!

This is the computer sampling rate. Needn't be set. The default one will work.I use both games and movies on pc up to foobar 2000 tidal mqa.
How many bits/samples should I set in this case?
Please tell me the optimized bits/samples.
For games and movies, choose 24-bit 48kHz or 32-bit 48kHz.I use both games and movies on pc up to foobar 2000 tidal mqa.
I have the same setup (black LP-6). I am finding that I have to go fairly high on the volume control though 60-70 (leaving gain to 0 on the back of the speakers). I haven't played around with the volume on the LP-6. Also looking to play around with the dip switches at some point. So far though, fairly happy with the combo.Getting this for hooking into Kali LP-6W bookshelf powered monitors, the XLR outputs are greatly appreciated.
