The A07 Max includes a deal breaker for me ... the power switch on the volume control totally undoes gain staging and requires resetting the volume controls every time you turn them on. I stayed with the A07... With a couple of mods, op-amps mostly, the original a07 will compete with just about any 75 watt per channel amplifier out there.
The A07Max volume know speaks to ease of use… but you are right… resetting the volume every time is annoying, particularly if your system is more complex.
@@barrywilliams606 Yes you can. I suggest you buy an inexpensive RCA switch box so you can flip the inputs at the push of a button. Flipping the cables all the time will eventually break something....

I am considering either one is sound quality the same in both ?
They both sound terrific for their price… a shocking value. But the A07max does sound better… you can hear a difference.
Can I use a DAC and a phono preamp with aiyima a07 max?

Take the opamps out of the original a07 and put in SparkoS. You're welcome.
