It has "gaming" in the product name. The price is very inexpensive. It doesn't have much traction in audiophile circles as a good deal. I expected it to be not great. The alternatives are what? A...

I don't think the target audience for a device like this are going to care about measurements. They see a $56 dollar 'gaming' AIO with some EQ controls, semi decent power compared to budget dongles...

Your receiver is acting as the DAC + Amp already. If you want to use this instead you'd need to have the digital source (computer, bluethooth, cell phone, etc) feed into this Fosi instead of your...

There's actually a lot of debate around the "cleanliness" of digital signals, including for USB which can carry "noise" because of all the other data it's carrying simultaneously.

Consider trying their SK02 if this option doesn't suit your needs. I personally use the SK02 as a DAC and the SK01 as a preamp for my mono HiFi system (2 ZA3s), and they work wonderfully for me. This...

Monoprice is likely much better than this broken DAC that has messed up frequency response. They added analog adjustment to a DAC and ended up with a broken product.
USB, usually.
Redundant...
