QLS QA390 - Shenzen DAC/AMP and DAP?

found this and can’t put it somewhere
The 3+XLR outs are strange

What are your thoughts?

Strange? Aren’t they standard balanced outputs? They could be connected to any preamp, headphone amplifier, or powered speakers.

ok, I watched it…music was nice mellow and I was really liking the design of the device…Then SHENZHENAUDIO troll’d me with some techno beats and flashing signage… :rofl:

But I will have to look at this and see what it’s main purpose is as the top screen makes me think of a Roon end point? or a streamer of some sort? But I do like the design…now if it comes in Purple… :thinking::face_with_monocle: Then we would be talking some serious high-brow gear :wink:

Yeah, I think those are DAC out to amp XLR outs on the back.

almost purple:)

I meant the 3 different TRRS/TRS in front plus the XLR
It is rare to see all sorts of hf outs on a front panel

This thing - it is feature packed up to the roof.
But for the price… I would prefer the RME Adi 2

yeah, this would make a great “off-site” all in one system. I like how it has all the different outputs… but a big flaw in my book is the odd placement of the volume pot…having it recessed would, I think get annoying over time.

I am digging on the black with red volume though that is pretty slick!

Yes you say it -the recessed volume pot got my attention- nothing you want to play with.

I also like that it has pretty much every headphone connection type. You can use whatever you have. :+1:t4:

Well it’s $6200 less than the Sony equivalent
