The price/quality ratio is great, I will buy again.

But all these shortcomings and nit-picking overlap with a good sound. I grumbled so much . I really like the sound!
A digital hi-res player S. M.S. L DP5 was connected to the amplifier via analog RCA tulips. Review about him on his page in the market. They are very pleased!

Pros

The sound is great! Full of all sorts of inputs, handing digital. True, the built-in DAC decodes no more than 24 bit / 44.1 kHz. I play on modest PolkAudio RTI A3 and AC8851 of Alexandrov project Convenient remote. 2 speaker outputs

Cons

- Simple appearance. - Antediluvian LCD screen. -Non-motorized volume knob - wish it had an LED marker and rotated. - I refused to play 24/98 high cuts from the Fiio x3ii player via coax. Plays a maximum of 24bit/44.1kHz. - The relay constantly clicks loudly when switching inputs. - Out of the box came with the old firmware. It is inconvenient to flash the firmware via a DB9 RS232 direct cable with a utility with a y-modem protocol. Where to find the RS232 DB9 cable now will still need to be considered. - And yet, the inscriptions next to the input selection buttons cannot be disassembled more than a meter from it. But it's a handy remote. - Yes, and I do not like the headphone jack for a small jack! The amplifier should be only with an output for a large jack !
