Hi all, my first post here. I'm finally looking to move on from my V20 that I have been using with a KZ ZS3. My new phone will be the Samsung S10+, and sadly the sound quality of this phone cannot hold a candle against my ageing V20.
What would be a suitable portable (either dongle or non dongle wired, or even wireless BT) DAC/AMP combo that will be an upgrade SQ-wise to the LG V-series Quad DAC?
I've been looking around and some of the DAC I've come across that are within my consideration are:
Wired Dongle
- Meizu HiFi Pro (CS43131)
- iBasso DC02 - MYR 185 (AK4490EQ)
- E1DA 9038D (ES8038q2m)
Wired Non Dongle
- Qudelix 5K (ES9218p dual) in wired mode 24bit/96khz
Bluetooth
- Qudelix 5K (ES9218p dual)
I'd love more options. My first and foremost priority is sound quality, followed by portability (size wise I am willing to consider up to credit card sized DACs).
Preferably it should be a noticeable improvement from the V20's ES9218p.
Thanks in advance
