For sale the SMSL IDEA. Had bought this to use with work computer. Not really needed anymore.
As new, barely used. Sounds great, goes pretty loud for a dongle. It's really small which is convenient.

Improves upon sh*tty audio of lower-end phones or computers (from my limited testing).
This thing is great for gaming with the ESS Sabre DAC inside, too. Great positional cues.

Archimago reviewed this dongle here http://archimago.blogspot.com/2017/05/measurements-smsl-idea-usb-dac.html
he still uses it as a reference in his latest posts. It's just, great for its size.
