Excellent product, remote needs improvement
01 August 2017  | 

Defining this unit just as a headphone amplifier and DAC is not giving justice to it. The audio quality is very good, making this unit to be able to stand as a preamp in a decent hifi chain.

Colourless, a "what you hear is what you play" kind of unit. It benefits of the use of balanced digital input, but I got excellent results also from the analogue-in connected to my Pro-Ject turntable.

The only reason why I haven't given 5 stars is the remote. Quite a shame to see that the remote is a general purpose model, with buttons not working or labelled wrongly. This machine deserves a better, dedicated remote!

Despite the poor remote, a "would buy it again" product for me.
