The SMSL D400ES is equipped with the latest generation of ESS digital/analog converter with the 32bit 8 channel ES9039MSPro chip, a new reference in the world of high-end DACs. It uses ESS' patented Hyperstream® IV technology. Thanks to the QUAD modulator architecture, it offers unprecedented sound quality and audio specifications, including excellent dynamic range and THD+N. It also now incorporates an MQA decoder.
The USB input of the D400ES embeds a XMOS XU316 USB interface. This particularly powerful microcontroller allows a fast and efficient processing of audio streams via USB. It also guarantees the support of PCM signals up to 32bit 768kHz and DSD up to DSD512.
With its ES9039MSPro chip, the D400ES becomes capable of decoding and playing the MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) format. This type of file offers a high sound quality, as close as possible to the original studio recording. Each track is also authenticated by the artist, producer or copyright holder. This type of format is notably used on the Tidal streaming platform. In addition, MQA-CD is also supported, allowing this type of file to be played from a CD player.
In addition to its already complete connectivity, the D400ES integrates a Bluetooth 5.0 receiver from Qualcomm. This one offers the possibility of broadcasting and controlling simply its music in wireless, from a smartphone or a tablet for example. The receiver chip used supports the high-resolution transmission codecs aptX HD and LDAC for a quality sound reproduction in Bluetooth.
The whole D400ES benefits from a quality design, using only components specially selected for their performance. It features an eight-channel parallel circuit with no less than 11 OPA1612 operational amplifiers, the brand's CK-03 clock system for greatly reduced jitter, and a low-noise regulated power supply stage.

"SMSL D400ES delivers flawless state of the art performance in digital to audio conversion. It also looks quite attractive. The only negatives are the cost and the rotary control. Not much else to say really. In case you are comparing it to its D400EX sibling, I think it performs a bit better yet costs less. I am happy to recommend SMSL D400ES DAC.
