This is an excellent dongle DAC. Despite its small size, power output is very impressive and was able to drive just about any headphone or IEM I tested. Both 3.5 and balanced outputs are available, a big plus in my opinion. The device is easily portable, and works fine with multiple sources I tried - smartphones, tablets, PCs all had no issue. A USB-C to USB-C cable is provided, you’ll need a USB-C to A if you only have USB-A ports. There’s no gain control, just volume - which may be disappointing to some but I didn’t really find this to be a problem considering its intended use.

As I’ve said, power output is impressive - I never felt like I couldn’t get sufficient volume out of my gear. Sound quality is also very pleasing. I find the DAC leans a tad bit warm in terms of sound profile, not something I can be certain of but overall I found it to be a rather neutral presentation. Treble might feel a bit smooth on certain gear, but never harsh. I prefer it that way.

Now, obviously this isn’t going to give you the output of larger desktop DACs - but considering its size and portability, still impressive. I was able to crank it to hearing-loss levels. Even on a smartphone, I never needed to really push the volume much. On some gear, pushing the volume too high did expose some harshness in mids and treble that higher end DACs handle fine. I can’t imagine anyone really doing that to their ears though.

For those looking for a step up from regular dongles, the D10 is a great choice. I can’t compare it to many other similarly priced dongles, but it’s definitely good value for those looking for a little more without having to use a hefty device. Lack of gain control may be a con, but looking at the intended use of the device as a dongle, I won’t knock it. Some will find it a bit pricey considering its size. As someone looking to get a bit more kick out of my IEM or headphones while on the move, I find it good value.

Was looking for some small bookshelves for my desk set up. Took a chance on these. Pleasantly surprised. Build quality is good and the sound is excellent. Tried 2 mini amplifiers and sound is excellent with both. Surprising amount of bass from such small units!

Don’t think twice!! This amp has blown me away!! Clean and powerful, effortlessly runs a pair of B&W floor standers @ 150W/ 8ohms. There is absolutely nothing to pick at at this price point!

Dave is a pleasure to deal with and I will support him in a flash going forward!!

Beautiful speakers. Sound great to me. Very good build quality for the price.

Pickup was available almost immediately. The DAC itself sounds amazing and can be used to convert 2 active speakers into a budget left right stereo system. It is full of features and the Bluetooth input and remote are a spoil at this price.

The service and quality of the website (including the parcel tracking) was superb :-)

The SMSL M300SE is running via an Audio Quest optical audio cable into a KRK S10.4 Sub, 2 x KRK RP8 G4 Studio monitors and 2 x ELAC AM200 powered speakers with AMT tweeters. The sound is glorious, and the fact it just runs from the USB out on my TV is amazing!

Thanks again :-)

Bought this for a Room setup, which I will run with some Dali Spektor 2s but for now it's connected to a pair of HD560S. Comparing to my ifi zendac, i think this is a really great purchase, mostly the difference has been the more forward presentation of certain instruments. It is not what I would say overly bright, just more forward with back to back listening. I like it and I'll be using it for both a DAC for my speaker listening space and a headphone amp. Definitely recommend, I would say even over the ifi zendac with the pricing.

This small cost effective addition has made the world of difference to my listening pleasure! It produces fuller sound and enhanced warmth. An added new dimension to the system. Highly recommended
