SMSL M8 DAC, found a gem!

I just got my SMSL M8 - just hooked it up - it is pretty close to my iFi Nano but the output on the SMSL is higher. I didn't buy the P1 PS but I may try it at a later date. I did get the newer M8 as there was a BIOS update just after Jan 2016.

The firmware update added "screensaver" to the diaplay...turns off the OLED if it hasn't updated status in a while. That happens when samplerates change or you start or stop DSD playback. It was a relatively minor update.

The new M8 handles up to 768khz PCM.
 
I've gotta get mobile fixed so In not submitting so many replies...oh well..makes up for the absence.

I've read several things about the PSU they sell for it. If they're using a high input DC voltage the linear regulator has to work a lot harder to drop it down. No one has told me specs of the internals...just the usual input/output voltages.

Hot isnt neceasarily bad...it's just sloppy design.
