@amirm , do you write down the price of the products you tested? For price-performance scatter?
I look them up when I start writing the review but otherwise don't keep track of them.

How about these?

Yulong DA9 / DA10 - D9 currently on Massdrop - https://www.massdrop.com/buy/yulong-da9-balanced-dac-amp#overview

I concur with the new Yulong DA10. I asked Yulong about the update from the DA9 and someone there wrote back:

"Da10 is based on new digital signal and clock processing to bring better sound"

AK4497 based with a lot of interesting support goodies. On a short list for upgrade possibilities but I would love to see this thing tested before deciding to drop the expense. I have a huge appreciation for ASR as a Schiit and Audio-GD owner. :facepalm:

I actually have a D10 in for review! I did some preliminary tests on it and it looks good.

I love you. Assuming you mean the Yulong instead of the Topping. I imagine it's easy to have "D10" burned into your brain.

Ah, you mean DA10 as opposed to Topping D10! BTW, the topping gets recommended so often as a pairing with JDS Atom, you really should re-measure it with the new setup.

This has probably been said before, but I'll say it again:

Benchmark DAC3.

I can't wait to see how it measures up to the Gustard unit recently tested.

Audiophonics es9038q2m vs Khados Tone Board <3
-it only outputs 1.54Vrms compared to Khadas 2V :/
-audiophonics basic measurement looks not too impressive/not as good as khadas
