Great and compact form-factor
My portable DAC amp that spends most of the time on the desk, but small enough to be packed in back-pack on a trip.

Good sounding
Sound good, a lot of sound tweak are possible. BUT the PCM 1-2-3-4 does nothing it always revert back to PCM1 immideately.

All one could ask for in a portable DAC/Amp
This has pretty much everything I'd want in a portable DAC/Amp that can act as a desktop replacement. Most importantly it has enough power for my Beyerdynamic DT990 600 Ohm and my Argon-modded T50RP Mk2 (two notoriously hard to drive headphones). And of course it does have enough input/output options to make it pretty useful not to mention the customizability of the op-amp (which I've replaced with a Burson v5i-D). In the long term the rechargeable battery can easily be replaced (it's not soldered and there are some third party replacements on places like Ali). So this one is definitely a keeper. It doesn't hurt that its case looks pretty good and feels solid. The only "con" I can think of is there seems to be no auto-dim setting for the display panel for when I'm listening late at night and want a perfectly dark room.

Great sound in small package
First of all I really like the knob and the toggles. It's fun to use and they're made really nice.
It has enough power for all of my over ear headphones (6xx, sundara, elegia and fostex t50) and even most of my iems sounds great with it (few has background noise with it, probably due to sensitivity, like hidizs ms2).
The bass boost actually sounds good to my surprise.
I like it a lot with my sundara, and for some songs I use the bass toggle which is a nice bonus.
Only downside is that it's heavier than I thought and I still prefer to take dongle dac outside with me. So I mainly use it at home.

Died after a few months of light use
Sounded pretty well for the money. Plenty of power for HD6xx, Arya Stealth/Organic. Nice noise floor.
Unfortunately, it failed to turn on today. I first thought that the battery was dead(it was supposed to be around 60%). Then I noticed that the charging light on the back panel is not turning on.
the sad part, I have always used the unit indoors and probably had 100 hours on it, tops. Now I need to figure how to get it repaired under the warranty.

Great device at this price
First, I'd like to mention that I'm really happy with the way Drop handled my order. Delivery in a week across the ocean. Pretty good, huh? Secondly, the device itself is excellent. I was pleasantly surprised that both power and PC/smartphone ports are USB-C. The XD-05 Plus is powerful just as the manufacturer claims. The SQ is great as well, the XD-05 Plus sounds spacious and relaxed (laid-back?), but when the occasion calls for it it can deliver great, very well-controlled and powerful bass response. At last some of my more demading open-backed headphones exhibit the kind of bass response that is more typical of closed-back HPs. The ATH-AD900X packs quite a wallop with the Xduoo. Deep, well-controlled and powerful. The same with the HD560S. The overall sound signature is slightly cold with the bass boost switched off, but gets warmer with the bass boost switched on. Important notes about the traits of this device: 1. with the bass boost switched off the sound lacks a little bass, with it switched on the bass gets too prominent and EQ is necessary to tone it down a notch; 2. It's seems that charging this device while powered on is not a great idea, it uses excessive amounts of energy then and charges at an infinitesimal rate; 3. the BT add-on for this device is no longer available, in order to use bt you have to buy a separate BT DAC (receiver) like the Topping BC3.

Love it so far!!
First of all, this is a solid metal machine, so a pleasure to hold in hand and one can tell it is made with quality in mind. I haven't had a chance to use it extensively yet, but thus far, it is just great! I love the adjustments that one can make to bolster the sounds coming from various sources. Very smooth and pleasant, non fatiguing until now.
For the price I paid for it, this has to be one of the better deals I've made this year on HIFI gear!

Really nice DAC
XD05 Plus is really nice DAC/AMP with good set of functionalities and capabilities for its price range. The only cons to me is that it cannot use same port for data and cahrge as well as it cannot be switched the battery off and use it as "constantly connected" device which could shortedn the batteryy life significantly if the charge circuit is not "intelligent" enough but we shall see.
Overall, great product for its price!
