D20 High-Fidelity DAC — AIYIMA 10th Anniversary Series Finale

Really interesting to see Aiyima moving toward a full matching stack with the 10th anniversary. The idea of having a DAC, preamp, and power amp that are designed to work together (including triggers and consistent design) is definitely appealing.


That said, I’m curious about a few things before getting too excited:


  • What are tbe USB implementation are being used.
  • Any estimated release date and pricing yet.

If the performance matches the concept, this could be a very solid option for people wanting a clean, unified setup without mixing brands. Looking forward to more details!
 
If the implementation is done right (power supply, clocking, USB stage), this could actually be a very solid all-in-one ecosystem.
That said, the big question for me is still: 👉 Do we have any real measurements yet (SINAD, jitter, etc.) or independent testing?
Because on paper this looks promising — but with DACs, implementation matters just as much as the chip itself.
If it measures well, this could genuinely compete with the usual Topping/SMSL options while offering a cleaner integrated stack experience.

Our USB audio chip utilizes the XMOS XU316, supporting switchable UAC 1.0/2.0 modes, and is paired with three high-quality crystal oscillators to ensure stable signal transmission. We are currently in the final stages of debugging; the measured parameters will be released shortly.

This looks absolutely phenomenal. Definitely on my bucket list to try it out!

First impressions it seems like AIYIMA may have outdone themselves again but I should see some Reveiws first before I make any real opinions on it!
 
I have both A20 and T20 but there is no hdmi arc connection, so I still use the other all in one amp. for my living room speaker system. I am waiting for D20. please make sure hdmi arc func. work properly.. Currently my all in one amp. turn on and off suddenly without any signal from TV or Remote controller. but unfortunaletely the maker still does not release fixed firmware. but I trust that AIYIMA will provide top-tier customer support to its users!.
 
Hi! I like the design and it has some really interesting features. Will there also be an aluminium-coloured frame available?
 
How would the D20 be useful in use with the A80 and what benefits would be gained ? Very happy with the A80 and I'm looking forward to hooking up the x800 when it arrives ! Thx

After a month of anticipation, I brought my P600s home today. The sound in combination with the A20 and T20 is truly masterful. Thank you for your dedication! To complete the experience, I am eagerly awaiting some good news from the manufacturer

I hope God will bless me so that I win next time!
 
Congrats to 🫵@ThatGuy! Fingers crossed for us remaining next time around.

Even though proportions of the upcoming A20 Mono(s) are somewhat different from the D20 (so it can't be placed on top of each other) I think it's gonna be a great match both sonically and visually.
I trust in Aiyima for volume control with the D20 combined with the gain switch on the A20 Monos to be of the same quality at least as the NJW1195 of the A20 with an unregulated DAC connected. - No doubts about that.(y)
