They are up: Measurements of DETHONRAY SG1 BT DAC/HPAmp - L7Audiolab
Looks okay, with some quirks … I am digging the red color.

Looks okay? Are we looking at different things? SINAD of 30, today standard is like 110+, and power output less than 20mW on both outputs.
This is the biggest piece of crap I have ever seen. Hope it is a defective unit or so…
- No USB DAC.
- 10 Ohm SE / 40 Ohm Balanced output impedance.

True!
But I believe(hope) you are right on being a defective prototype. From some of the forums where it is starting to show up it get good word comparing it to other bluetooth dac/amp.

I was surprised by the measurements too.
Looks absolutely terrible. Even tube amps are at least twice as good.

Looks really modern now. Thought of getting the balanced flex to highpass my LS50 and apply room correction without the need of a PC

Dunu showed their TALOS model, a Planar + 2 BA config. With a switch that toggles between pure planar or planar + 2 BA setup.

Tried to find out the power output. Found the manual online. Tiny bit less powerful with 1200mW compared to the NX7 with 1400mW but still impressive with more power than a iFi gryphon.
No bass boost or something…Maybe it comes with an app for EQ…Guess that’s too much to ask for.

A xDuoo poke II with 700mW (over balanced) is priced at $400, the Gryphon $600. Wouldn’t be surprised if the G5 will be around ~$400 too.
Enter pairing mode: Switch Gain L→ M→L→M→L→M within 5 seconds, status indicator flashes to mean G5 has entered pairing mode. 
Edit one day later:
( TLDR: 119dB SINAD, 153mW 300 Ohm, 1020mW 32 Ohm )

You may be right unfortunately I suppose

If they manage to squeeze it at ~300 USD, I’d still think it’s fair for a product with this much power and features.

Seems heavy, but sound is still king. Hopefully doesnt break the bank…
It looks HUGE though. Surprised a chinese company came out with that.

only part that actually looks like plastic is the headband adjustment part rest looks like wood and metal
time will tell…
I think it looks pretty nice! At least it doesn’t look like so many other headphones. It has it’s own style. I can definitely respect that.
