Hidizs ST2 Pro
The integrated ESS ES9218AC Pro DAC decodes 32-bit/384kHz PCM and DSD128 with a 122dB dynamic range and 0.0012% THD, delivering lossless wired audio that bypasses Bluetooth compression. Dual beamforming microphones with AI noise suppression and a 0.08ms latency DAC ensure clear voice comms and instantaneous positional cues for gaming. It’s best for desktop listeners and competitive FPS players needing zero-lag reference audio, not for commuting where a 28.5 score signals poor isolation.
