With upgraded internals, broader connectivity, and user-focused improvements, it builds on the DX5 without reinventing the wheel. Dual ES9039Q2M DACs provide the decoding core, while an all-new X-Hybrid amplifier circuit drives your headphones, plus the updated Aurora UI and PEQ system offer precise and powerful sound tailoring. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch2\u003e\n \u003cstrong\u003eNew dual DAC design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003c\/h2\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eTwo ES9039Q2M chips handle digital conversion—one per channel.

It uses a discrete input stage, op-amp gain stage, and discrete output stage. The result is high efficiency, improved thermals, and precise delivery at every volume. Power output peaks at 7600mW x2 into 16Ω—more than enough for basically any headphone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch2\u003e\n \u003cstrong\u003eBalanced audio in a compact case\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003c\/h2\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eWith a quad-channel fully-balanced headphone amplifier, the DX5 II fits serious hardware into a small chassis.
