In the world of desktop audio, aesthetics rarely seem top priority for manufacturers. A black, brushed-metal finish is common fare for digital-to-analog converters (DACs) and amps, and if it doesn't have a fancy LED display on it, things start to look samey.
Enter Apos, an online retailer of audiophile equipment that's made a name for itself with the Apos x collaborations and community-driven products, such as the Apos Gremlin headphone amp and the Apos x Geshelli Merlin DAC. Nothing looks even remotely like these two lads, and that fills my heart with joy.
