Lotoo’s PAW Gold Touch is a monumental entry in the flagship space.

Gallantly abandoning their button-clad comfort zone, the audio player veterans have shown that they can tango with the top dogs in build, aesthetics, software design and sound. Few interface quirks notwithstanding, this is a luxury product with the function and form to match.

Sonically, it’s one of the most well-executed iterations of neutral we’ve heard from a source. How well it executes reference without monotony and spaciousness without indifference is most impressive to our ears. In addition, the stunningly low noise floor, immense output power and plethora of sound-shaping options make one gorgeously complete package.

The PAW Gold Touch alone is a compelling buy for any discerning audiophile.

REVIEW | HEADFONIA.COM

… Lotoo has a very unique approach to digital audio players. With their pro-audio background, it doesn’t come as a surprise that they have opted for a super neutral signature for their top of the line music player. At the end of the day, it is the ground for their customers to build their own sound on, and what better signature to have than a reference one?

The PAW Gold Touch brings a few features to the table which we haven’t seen in any other portable player, at least none that I know of. If I’m correct, it’s the very first player to come with a built-in Sample Rate Converter and enabling this one, makes a noticeable difference in sound.

I can only imagine how long it took Lotoo to code their own firmware for this unit, and I am deeply impressed by how far they have come with it. It’s one of the most enjoyable units out there and I tip my hat to the engineers who made it a reality.

Hats off to Lotoo for one of the best audio players in the current market. The Touch gets my personal stamp of approval and goes on to the list of Best DAPs.
