Hidizs S3 Pro Portable MQA DAC AMP

Hidizs S3 Pro Portable MQA DAC AMP is the new model of the S3 series which was a simple Type-C DAC dongle. S3 Pro has a better DAC chip, obviously, ESS9281C Pro which also supports MQA decoding. Lately, we see many makers using this DAC chip for example Hilidac Atom 2Questyle M12, and THX Onyx.

Mixed Braiding of 2 core high purity silver + 2 core OFC wires (60 strands each). Silver wires make for a brighter and cleaner sound quality. OFC wires add smoother and gentler performance. This is Hidizs’s claim, not mine. Does cable matter? 🙂
