Hi guys,

I just need to know if the SMSL VMV D2 DAC gets hot? I live in Arizona and don’t want to have a DAC that gets physically hot to the touch. It can be warm, but not hot. The Gustard X26 pro gets very hot, so I can’t have that. This VMV D2 sounds great in the reviews, but I need to know if it gets hot.

Thanks guys
