SMSL Q5 Pro upgrade. Need advice
Hello all,
I would like to upgrade my stereo installation. I've an audio server under Daphile connected to a DAC Fosi ZH3. The ZH3 is connected to the aux input on a SMSL Q5 Pro driving a pair of Q Acoustics 3020i. My room is small (9m2)
I think I can change the amp with a better one in a low budget (about 100 to 200€).
I need only analog input (RCA only or RCA and XLR/jack TRS), no bluetooth or digital input.
I also would like to have a tone control on the amp.
I had a Loxjie A30 during six months, but don't liked it too much.
So I thought about many models
- Fosi TB10D (32V5A)
- SMSL PA40
- Douk Audio A5 Pro
- Ampapa D1
- SMSL A0200 MKII
I also thought to the Douk Audio A5, Fosi V3 or Fosi ZA3, but they have no tone control.
I've no clue about the sound of these amps, I listen acoustic music, so the amp must be clear to have details. The amp must provide a good separation of the instruments and a good spatialization of the sound.
What do you think of these different amplis, which one do you recommend in my case?
Many thanks for your help.
