This Basic Black Box Delivers
Set-up was quick and easy. Although very boxy-looking [hence, "DAC Box"], with sharp corners and only one ESS9038 DAC [the Topping D50 has two and costs $50 less], Pro-Ject's implementation is very good, producing a detailed and musical listen. Tidal MASTER streaming, USB input, 32bit/384kHz leaves little to be desired.System: Lenovo G50-->iFi iSilencer-->USB Disruptor/-->Ultra-Fi K-Line Filter-->daBig Genius cable-->Pro-Ject Dac Box S2+ [32/384]-->Neotech UPOCC copper interconnects-->ecp DSHA-3F headphone amplifier [balanced]/Neotech UPOCC copper power cable-->balanced UPOCC silver headphone cable-->Focal Utopia

It didn't work
I was very excited to get this. Now I am sad. I plugged in the RCA cables to my amp, and the Optical input into the optical output of my TV, plugged in the power supply and started playing a movie... no sound. I plugged the Coax onto my Bluetooth receiver and started streaming my favorite spotify playlist on shuffle, no sound. With spotify still playing silently to the bluetooth. I connected my USB on my phone to the DAC USB, and suddenly, a fleeting glimmer of hope, I was able to hear 5 seconds of "wind Cries Mary" as if by immaculate reception. The sound faded away as quickly as it appeared.I spent hours toggling through the inputs, checking the setting in my phone and TV to see if I needed to do something to turn on the digital audio out, but couldn't find anything. After hours of checking and double checking the set up and all the inputs and outputs. Now I can't even toggle through the inputs. I think it doesn't work. That is why I am sad

Quit working
Very pleased with it's performance.I use it for my my cable box and blu ray player to my home stereo.It's certainly a step up from the dac box e I was using previously.Pandora sounds fantastic and blu ray soundtracks yields more detail and clarity.Also,I purchased this power supply as a small upgrade for this dac https://www.amazon.com/iPower-Noise-Power-Adapter-Travel/dp/B01GNNXP0Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1528580929&sr=8-1&keywords=ifi+ipower+5vSadly not long after this review it quit working.Powers on but no output.Was nice while it lasted which was not very long.No more Pro-ject equipment for me.

Great sound
Great sound in this little DAC. Have it connected from PC to my old NAD C325 amp and the sound is so much clearer than with just AUX cable between PC and amp.I can't hear difference between the five filters, but that's probably more to do with my amp and speakers.Only reason for not 5 stars is I would have liked a power switch on the back

Die Pro Ject DAC Box ist spitze- eiziger Nachteil ist, daร es keinen Ausschalter gibt

unmoegliche Bedienung
Eine kleine Box ist ok...aber es waere genug Flaeche um nicht nur 01,mm grosse LEDs und ca 1mm grosse Knoepfe zu verbauen. Ohne Lupe nicht zu Bedienen. Somit null Info ueber Zustand / Filter / Quelle wenn man nicht davor kniet mit der Lupe.Klangmodi / Filter ohne jeden Unterschied...was mir auch der Support in einer ehrlichen Meinung bestaetigt hat.Kette: Jamo Reference R909 und NAD Masters M3e und M2...Sony SCD 1
