SMSL PA-X Review

There are plenty of warm-sounding sources on the market, and when taken together, you can pair the PA-X with one of those to tailor the sound. Or pair it with a flavored DAC to suit your needs.
The PA-X tuning pushes the midrange slightly forward, but not at the expense of either end or near-neutrality. I did find that to get the best details out, the volume must be pushed higher than one might expect, but there is plenty of headroom for that.
The ability to pair with a comparable DAC makes for an enticing Opportunity to play around with the sound, too. This is where the iFi and Geshelli Labs came into play, and both represented a positive effect on the PA-X.
