Evidence & support

Keep the conditions visible

Its useful differences are architecture, output modes and size; R2R or NOS does not by itself prove better sound.

SoundPath verdict

What matters beyond the spec sheet

Strengths

  • Desktop R2R experimentation
  • USB headphones and powered speakers

Weaknesses

  • Bluetooth or network streaming
  • Portable use

Biggest limitation

The R2R/NOS presentation is a preference and should not be treated as universally more accurate.

Best alternative

FiiO K7 for higher-output conventional delta-sigma conversion.

Best-value use case

Desktop R2R experimentation
