Such a badass lookin portable brick. I always enjoy Xduoo's designs. You're killin me with that Z Reviews Cadmus just sittin there being beautiful. Can't wait for mine to arrive. Most luxurious feeling cable I've ever held.
Thank you for a super review. Every now and then a product comes out which moves this industry in a large way. Imagine a desktop version where one can put in place any OP of your choice and any amp type you choose. I believe this product will sell like hot cakes. Count me in.
Hi Dave, as usual great video. What a great device! Btw as of me making this comment I did see an AK Dac come up too. Its the AK4499EX DAC Card to be exact.
Long time watcher - first time commenter here! What is the song that starts playing as 12:16? Thanks you I'm now a fan of Giants' Nest. Your videos are a pleasure to watch - even if I'm not interested in the product, I still watch!
This is the one solid state portable device. DC05 pro + sparkos ss3602 + upcoming r2r dac chip? I need to try this so bad. Akm dac chip released just about now. Now for a portable (nu)tube portable amp, ibasso pb5 osprey is just around the corner and I got my eye on that one as well!
I got this few days ago and for some reason its not detecting the streem quality of apple music which I have set on my pc to 192 KHz output ? the XD05 is only reading 48KHz on the front display? Can someone explain why please? im in the dark here
I need to ask you .. i have beyerdynamic dt1990 and this unit as well and im using qobuz .. so do i need a DAP instade of my smartphone to get a better sound quality ??
almost a complete all in one, just lack one thing they don't implement nutube for they that want tubey flavour. from cayin n6ii user perspective i am in love those swapable dac and even better, a swapable op amp module function, even the ibasso max series doesn't have this function, and it much cheaper than the sp1000 of AK charged. let be honest, serious audio portable enthusiasts don't walking around with $3k dap and $3k iems when immersed onto their musics or headbanging, they all nicely seated comfort in aircon room while doin their rituals 😂. for $800 a good sound & almost complete connectivity ( heck they even included whole bunch of cables ) that is the first one in daps combo sales, this is sure to be consider.
Hello. Need your help cause i am lost in choice. Got a 600 dollars ( euros ) budget to buy a portable dac/dongle and iems. My librairy ( london grammar charlotte cardin ) is on a smartphone. Much thanks to you.
There's no point in using a dac when I can use a dap. To connect with a phone makes no sense to have 2 bricks size blocks in my hand. And what's the point to use Bluetooth when the conversions is not a 32 bit by 500hz . I gave away all my portable dongle dacs and the big dacs I sold it and exchanged for big dap for home or pool area. And I got a micro dap that I placed in a neck rope lace for gym and use my wired iems. Problem solved

BEAUTIFUL video production! More importantly, insightful and comprehensive commentary on its performance. Subscribed.

Oh my those IEM cables are too pretty!
big monster of power, more "movable" than portable to be honest! :) thanks for the video!

Liked your reference to Jazz at the Pawnshop. A historic reference track.

Also ibasso's DC-Elite looks promising
Did the r2r dac chip come out yet?
Love the XD05 Pro, using mine with ROHM DAC with HA-8802 opamps, sounds really good for female vocals!
Nice review, thanks, I only missed discussing the external power supply.
Thanks for watching!
Ifi micro black label with 4W 😮
This vs Hiby R6 Pro II on pure SOUND QUALITY ? Do you think there's a big difference ?

Have you heard or compared this unit with the iFi Audio iDSD Signature or the Diablo? How's it image and soundstage?
@@susokraut3169You have a lot to learn.
Those this dac support usb output? Would love to use it in my vehicle which have usb input only.
Great content, nice house! 🎉
Thank you! And thanks for watching!

Hey do budget iem tierlist, also please make video about budget type c iem, those adapter are expensive and most phone kinda left 3.5 jack away now
Im pretty new to iems. Do you guys know if my focusrite scarlett 2i2 is good for iems?
Wow. This is looking like the "King Kong ain't got shit on me" of audio stuff.

Coloration for the price is not acceptable.
I think you mean....couldn't care less ;)
*couldn’t* care less. That’s the saying. If you COULD care less, that defeats the point. Sorry. Petty grievance
Technically, it means that you do care, at least a little, when saying *couldn't* care less....
no one is arguing the point you just made. Good day@@amxaas4450

I gotta say your voice does not match your appearance. An older gentleman with the voice of a college guy
