Review: Any of these are going to greatly improve the sound over plugging your headphones directly into the mini-jack on a computer. Listening was done with a few different headphones but mostly with beyerdynamic DT 700 PRO X Closed-Back Studio Headphones. Music source was a laptop connected to the DAC/Headphone Amp via USB. If an external power supply was included, I used that. If not, power came via USB. I've kept notes on my impressions brief and included comparisons amongst the DAC/Amp's in this list. They are listed below in my order of preference with my favorites at the top. If you want flowery vocabulary I'm sure in depth reviews are available out there on the web. Headphones make the greatest difference in sound - spend more on them, if necessary. The DAC/Amp is secondary but does add its own flavor to the music. --- iFi Zen DAC V2 | Desktop Digital Analog Converter (Listening only with "TRUEBASS" off.) Very good. Slightly better than the FiiO K7. Better vocal clarity and slightly fuller bass. I ended up comparing this with the FX-Audio DAC-X6 head to head, which continued to surprise me as I put it up against significantly more expensive competitors. Across several hours and many pieces of music, I prefer the iFi... but the difference is infinitesimal. Possibly the iFi has a little more punch to the bass? Maybe a bit more space ans separation? If you're working to a budget, get the FX-Audio and put the extra cash towards better headphones. FX-Audio DAC-X6 Mini HiFi 2.0 Digital Audio Decoder DAC This thing is good. Surprisingly good. I ended up putting it head-to-head with amps costing three times its price. Slightly warmer sound, with slightly less detail in the vocals than the iFi Zen Air, but more space in the music, and more enjoyable to listen to. Slightly better clarity than the Topping. FiiO K7 Full Balanced HiFi DAC Headphone Amplifier This is indeed better than the K5 version. Vocals are more lifelike. And a particular emphasis on the mid-treble heard in the K5 is absent. There is more separation between the instruments. Very close call with the iFi V2, with my preference going to the iFi for better vocal clarity and slightly fuller bass. iFi Zen Air DAC Not quite as good as the V2, but close. Closer than the FiiO K5 is to the K7. There is, again, a comparative emphasis in mid-treble and the vocals get a bit lost. The sound is slightly thin compared to rivals at this price point. FiiO K5 Pro Headphone Amps Portable Desktop DAC and Amplifier Not quite as good as the K7, but at half the price one cannot really complain. Vocals are not quite as lifelike and there is more mid-treble - but not in a good way. Topping DX1 Mini Stereo DAC Headphone Amplifier Combo Very good little unit. Bass is slightly overemphasized. Fosi Audio K5 Pro Gaming DAC Headphone Amplifier I thought this unit was DOA. Turns out that you must long press the volume knob to turn it on. (Short press to select input.) Not terrible, but not as musical as the others in this test. Also, the only one with bass and treble knobs. And only a mini-jack - no 1/4" jack. Pro-Ject Head Box S2 Digital This DAC/Amp had an issue that makes it unlistenable. The sound is very nice... but... there's some faint static. Only in the music, not in silence. A faint crackling.... Can't have that.

*by H***N on 5 May 2022*

D'une simplicité enfantine à mettre en service, cela ne sacrifie en rien la qualité incroyable de ce DAC. Étant habitué à du matériel très haut de gamme (très cher) , je suis surpris par les capacités hors normes de cet appareil au regard du prix planché. Il va révolutionner votre façon d'écouter les sons qui sortent de votre ordinateur. Aussi bien en jeux qu'en musique (streaming qualité HIFI). Associé à une petite paire d'enceintes actives aux alentours des 250€, le résultat est ÉPOUSTOUFLANT. La musique est ciselée, avec une dynamique impressionnante et pas un souffle. Même mon épouse à fait Wouah. Elle en veux bien pour son ordi portable maintenant. Passionné de Hi-Fi depuis 40 ans, je doit dire qu'au vu des éléments matériels utilisés sur la carte électronique, il n'est pas étonnant d'obtenir ce résultat. Mais l'obtenir à ce tarif, quel bonheur. N'hésitez plus. Si votre budget est serré, vous n'aurez pas mieux. Après comptez 800 à 1000€ pour passer au dessus, avec plein de fonctions que vous n'utiliserais jamais. Commandez avant la rupture... Ce sera peut être pour vous l'introduction au monde incroyable de la Hi-Fi 'High end'.
