Thanks for this, I was painfully refraining to type something around the same idea.The frying noise when you put it in hot oil?

Well, we can get an idea of what the new SMSL SU-X will be like by looking at the features of its competition on Topping.
The screen leaves a lot to be desired but internally it seems to measure up to the large DACs.

1) It's "Shenzhen" (pronunciation: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipe...nunciation.ogg/Shenzhen_pronunciation.ogg.mp3)
2) This is not company's name. It's the city where it is located.
i'm surprised i even have to explain this
calling a device SU-X is a choice
calling a device SUX is brave
i dont know what the rest of that was about
also i would say most people here are well aware of what Shenzen is... in fact many of us may even come from there, you never know :-/

A master DAC killer, SMSL SU-X
From entry-level to high-end, SMSL ensures every music lover can afford a well-performing DAC. Mentioning several successful series, the SU line should be put forward. Today, follow their popular SU-10, another detail-oriented DAC comes out, the SU-X! Thanks to careful design, SU-X provides a...

But “SUX” as a DAC name is not promising :-D
Unless another one is released in the meanwhile
Ordered one and will be arriving on Jan 2nd 2024.
I have D70 Pro Sabre and really like it. But, I also curious how D1SE2 sounds compare to it. Or say, how SMSL sounds compare to Topping. I know D90 III is there, too. But, this time, I will give SMSL a chance. And, the 2 USB inputs are VERY convenient to my setup (one from a HTPC, and one from RPi4 runs Volumio).

I tried the SMSL D400 Pro (single 9039 Pro) and it sounded like nails across a chalkboard through my Adam A7V speakers. It got no better after a full weekend of use. Maybe that dac just isn't a good match for the A7V and industrial/electronic rock? Glad I gave it a shot, but I'll stick with what I have now.
Cool name

Maybe, especially after the additional AD/DA conversion and DSP processing of the A7V

Conversely, my music, along with games and videos, sound great through my E70V and the additional AD/DA conversion and DSP processing of the A7V.Maybe, especially after the additional AD/DA conversion and DSP processing of the A7V

Did you try it with 0 DB, Fixed Output? They come from factory with 2 DB, I think these Dacs sound harsh this way when going into a preamp.

I think you are wrong, the SMSL D400 PRO does not have the ES9039 DAC, it has the single AK4499EX DAC.
