Clean DAC

Clean and detailed. Worth it considering the price for this balanced dac. Flawless performance from it's balanced output. I have only tested as a source to powered speakers. The interface is not so straightforward. You really need to take care if you are switching from line out to pre out because there is no separate mode in dac. If you are not careful, full line out signal will go to your power amp/speaker.
Will update once I test with my headphones and IEMs (HE 4XX, HD58X, GL2000, koss kph30i, Shuoer Tape and Blon bl03) using SMSL SP200 THX 888 amp.
Edit: Upon pairing this with SMSL SP200, I realise there is a reduction in soundstage using RCA interconnect compared to XLR interconnect. This can be attributed to a crossfeed of about 10dB in single ended output from E50 dac. Other than this I really have to say this a solid dac, punching way above it's weight at this price point.

It is an okay DAC

It did not wow me like the iFi Zen DAC v2 , the E50 definitely has more detail and clarity but I love the sound signature of the zen dac v2 better. The E50 is in no slouch either, I just prefer the warm sound of the zen dac v2 over the somewhat sharp sound of the E50. Also, I don't think it is worth 22k. It could be because of my amplifier pairing also which is also somewhat bright, hopefully with a new amplifier, it performs more to my liking. As of right now, 4/5 from me.

We appreciate your honest review & ratings, ravin!

Great Overall DAC

I attached the DAC to my Yamaha amplifier & was blown by the separation of musical instruments. Have attached to my RPi streamer acting as a Roon endpoint. I'm quite happy with the setup.

Hey there, nothing makes us happier than knowing you loved your purchase, hope you had a comfortable shopping experience & thank you for the great review & ratings!
