Title: Searching for a DAP
Post by: natf on 2018-01-10 10:02:55
Hello to all!
I'm searching for a DAP for my audio files.
No storage (I have external HDs), digital output to my external DAC, preferably toslink optical, and DSD support.
Searching on the net I found SMSL DP1 but no DSD support and some bad reviews.

Can you help me or is it only a dream?

Thank you in advance

Looks like you are looking for a box with has in interface, pulls data from external storage.
If you google for "streamer" you probably have more luck.

I notice that Onkyo HF player for Andriod claims to have DSD support.  You can test it on Android Smartphones. 

Most Android devices including Android phones, Android tablets and Android TV boxes will run it.

The HiBy R6, of course.

No toslink, but line out and coax digital out. Native DSD up to 256.

USB, wifi and bluetooth - balanced out - can be used as hifi transport.

Micro-SD cards for storage, if you decide you need it at a later date.
