Great product for the price!
I have these paired with a Philips Audio Philips SHP9500 HiFi Precision Stereo Over-Ear Headphones and they sound great. Great sound, easy to use and compact compared to others. Can connect with USB, Optical, Bluetooth and COA.

Nice little DAC/Amp
It's not expensive, it has bluetooth and optical connectors. First I bought th previous model on drop. But fortunately it went sour for some reason (COVID-19?). Better for me, got this instead for about the same price and a few $ lower than on other stores where I seen it. The sound is OK I guess, it's not hi-end audio but it boosts my laptops audio signal enough to get a good sound. The bluetooth is only for connecting a smartphone, tablet or a music player that supports it. As far as I'm concerned it does what it says, and that's plenty enough.

An improvement over the previous version in certain areas....
The Mk II version has more of a 3D effect with more pronounced front to rear depth. The earlier version (Mk I) however, has more dynamic punch, yet may also seem a bit more harsh in the upper frequencies. I'm glad that I ordered this Mk II version off of Drop prior to it even being released on a variety of other online sites. Improvements with the Mk II version include: More depth and the perceptions of a wider sound stage Has more of an "airy" feeling around the instruments Has a very nice tonal balance Has an excellent bass response, however, not as dynamic as the previous Mk I version Obviously, all of these reviews are opinions based on what we're listening to (speakers, other electronics, connecting cables, etc). I'm listening to the DAC-X6 Mk II via Presonus Eris E5 XT speakers, with the DAC plugged into my desktop PC. Cables being used are the wonderful Blue Jeans Cables LC1's (from the DAC to the speakers), and the Audioquest Pearl USB cables from the DAC to the PC. Line noise was substantially reduced using the iFI AC line condition/purifier. The only reason I didn't give it a full 5 stars is that although it is a very nice sounding DAC, the FX-AUDIO DAC X6 Mk II pales a slight bit to the other DAC I'm using, which is the iFI ZenDAC that I find superior.

Great DAC for the price point
the sound is crystal clear for a budget dac. Just need to get the right cables for it. Bluetooth audio quality is good as well!

This DAC/amp worked flawlessly and what I really appreciated was the dynamic headroom this device seems to have. But after JUST 3 1/2 MONTHS, IT WENT MUTE!!!! Bluetooth no longer connects, no sound from any input source, and what's worse, APPARANTLY THERE IS NO WARANTY ON THIS PRODUCT!!!! I have a Kenwood receiver that is thirty-two years old and it still works perfectly, but when buying modern electronics you never know who makes quality products anymore. Although this FX Audio DAC-X6 MK II cost only $60, I would hope to get at least a couple of years use from what is supposedly higher end audio. I am supremely disappointed and may not buy anything more from DROP as they only allow 30 days for the return/exchange window. Beware, make sure what you purchase here has a warranty or your may get screwed like I just did.

sszang1Hi, I tried to swap the v5i-D in place of the OPA2134 in the mk2 but I only got static in the right side. No music goes through even if I hit play. I have used the same v5i-D in my SMSL SaP II which worked fine in there in place of the OPA2064AP. What could be the problem here?

Good value for quality
I needed to give my receiver a new look and I did it with this DAC, for its value I was surprised by the amount of options it has and the audio is good for what it pays. A good all-in-one that helps me a lot with its bluetooth for when I need mobility
