An excellent dac / amp

I have been using this dac for a month and the truth is that it has fascinated me.

Let's start with its dimensions, it is large if you are used to dongles, but if you have already had one, it can be said that its size is small-medium.

Its construction is robust, nothing cheap that implies that we are facing a quality product, the only detail is its button panel since it is loose, that is, if you move this dac, they will sound like a rattle.

Its volume knob seems good and adequate to me, it is smooth and precise, behind it an LED lights up (depending on the file).

It has a good number of output ports, we have 2 balanced 4.4mm pentaconn, 1 professional output with its 3.5mm adapter, an amplifier output and its data and charging connection (it also has a power port but does not have the charger included Unfortunately).

Speaking of the sound, its performance is very good, it gives us a warm, rounded sound with excellent detail for its price, when activating the truebass we will obtain a much warmer sound, this will enhance the bass and sub-bass, but despite it keeps the music clean, it is not intrusive and it works better than a simple equalizer (I am not a fan of equalizing) but in this device using the truebass is fascinating.

Finally speaking of power, this dac / amp will cover all the needs of iems and even a large part of headband headphones, do not think that it will move you very demanding planars, if you use the balanced output and high gain you can move more demanding headphones (I would put limit 600 ohms to 95% of its capacity will move them).

In my opinion, this dac / amp is a safe purchase for anyone who starts or who only has mobile devices (dongles and low-end daps) and especially if you have headphones that are somewhat cold or balanced and you would like them to be more fun, colored and warm.

Shipping FAQ

Which countries do you ship to?

We are generally able to ship to most countries via Express Shipping, and many countries via Standard Shipping. You may clarify this with our team to check whether Standard Shipping is available to your country.

We cannot ship to addresses that are "PO boxes or APO/FPO".

*Note: Generally, we can only do Selected Shipping to India and Russia. We can only do Express Shipping to Africa, Argentina, Hawaii, Kuwait, Mauritius, Montenegro and Sri Lanka, to name a few.
This may be subjected to changes due to unpredictable issues such as Covid, war, and etc.

How much does shipping cost?

We have two shipping methods - Standard Shipping and Express Shipping.

Standard Shipping is free for most countries, while Express Shipping is 15-35USD depending on your country. If your order is over 270USD, Express Shipping is free*. 

*This applies for most countries. However, large items such as headphones and desktop DAC/AMPs (e.g. HarmonicDyne G200, MUSICIAN MDP-2, and etc.) are excluded.

Shipping fees exclude import taxes or processing fees that may be applicable for your country. Linsoul is not responsible for such fees. Should you refuse to pay the tax/customs fees, shipping fees will still be deducted from the amount paid for the two-way freight charges. The cost of the freight charges may be more than the amount reflected on your order due to tax and other miscellaneous fees.

Some parcels claimed to be “returned to the seller” may be destroyed by the post office or customs officers when buyers refuse to accept their parcels or fail to pay for their taxes. No refund will be processed for such cases.

Standard Shipping via YunExpress is a tax-inclusive option for some countries. However, Linsoul will not be responsible for additional administrative or handling fees charged by your local courier company or customs. Please kindly check this with your local customs.

For certain remote areas, there may be additional charges via Express Shipping. We will contact you if there is a need to make additional payments. 
Please contact us before placing an order, should you have any queries regarding shipping.  

How long does it take to receive the order after it is placed?

For in-stock products, your order will be shipped within 3 working days. You may check with our staff regarding the in-stock status of any products. 

Customized items will take a longer time. Please contact our staff for more information.

On normal non-sale days, once your parcel has been shipped out:

  • For Standard Shipping, it takes about 2-4 weeks for items to be delivered after shipping out. For some countries, it might take up to 2-3 months, depending on your country, its customs and other factors.* The duration for transit is something beyond our control. Linsoul will not be making refunds for such cases. Please consider an upgrade to Express Shipping or keep the waiting time in mind.
  • For Express Shipping, it takes about 3-7 days for items to be delivered after shipping out.

*Note: Timings might be affected due to festive seasons or other unforeseen circumstances

What happens if the parcel has been shipped but not delivered?
  1. First, kindly contact your local courier using the local tracking number.
    If your parcel were to be in transit for at least 3 months, it may have been lost in transit.
    For orders below $50USD, you may either opt for a one-time reshipment of parcel OR a full refund of the amount paid in cash via PayPal/Credit/Debit card.
    For orders above $50USD, we will only process a 50% refund of your order paid in cash via PayPal/Credit/Debit card. Should there be any concern about Standard Shipping, you are encouraged to opt for DHL Express Shipping instead.
  2. Customers are to bear the consequences and fees incurred, if the parcel was undelivered due to any of the following situation:
    • Wrong address or phone number provided by recipient
    • Recipient was uncontactable when courier company contacted
    • Refusal to sign for the package by recipient
    • Lost or damaged parcel because recipient opted for “no-signature delivery”
