Hi All, my first post on the DAC forum. I am setting up a stereo system which I planned to use Raspberry Pi 4 as source to feed DAC with USB. Based on the measurement and budget, I narrowed down to the 2 DAC on the title while I would like to get some insight here before I made the decision.
1. I think their measurement is very similar while SU-9 is ~25% cheaper and I think its smaller form factor. I never see both DAC in person but I somehow always think Topping has better build quality (reliability) based on those internet images. Anyone can share their experience with both brands?
2. I think RPi is Linux based and I see SMSL listed SU-9 as Linux USB compatible but I can't find such information for D70s. Any problem to use D70s (or SU-9) with RPi4?
3. Any small issue that I may need to pay attention with these 2 DAC?
