Pity, all that’s missing is a volume control so you can go direct to amp, as it has 2.5v output.

Some good reading on it here posted by project86

A firm that selling men'a accessories,cooking,watches and so on looks very suspicious to me to buy a DAC from them looks very suspicious for me .
If it's the price you find appealing, there's also the Audio-Gd R2R DAC..."

You missed the punchline - 'Discrete R-2R".
@itzhak1969 - massdrop collaborates with the corporate entity to bring to the market cheaper versions of established products based on confirmed orders and interests, the company knows exactly the demand and how many units they can sell, and buyers get established products at a cheaper price, basically they are labelled differently. Plenty of great companies released massdrop branded versions of their headphones and amps through massdrop collaborations. It’s basically like a kickstarter business model. Nothing illegitimate or suspicious about it.
