Fiio Q3. Would also be nice to have a separate category for portable/transportable battery powered gear like the Fiio Q3, Monoprice Portable Amp, Topping NX4DSD, and i think some of the iFi stuff too.

 

[Vuki]

Arylic S10 and S50

There are categories for both Standalone Players (DAPs) and DAC/Amp combos

The SMSL M100. The SMSL Sanskrit MKII is 140 now, is the M100 MKII just as competent with the more available ESS chip?

 

[TheTalbotHound]

iFi Hip DAC, xDSD, and iDSD Diablo.

[highpurityusbcable]

Devilishly brilliant
‘Bit-perfectly’ wicked
Positively pure
Diabolically dynamic
Power that does not corrupt.
Formula 1, iFi style.
Hooking up with the Devil…

This brand was comical before with their usb dehumidifiers but this is on another level.

I would like to see some of the next generation of Schiit products that tested poorly in the past:
Bitfrost 2
Jutenheim 2

Bifrost 2 definitely still measures quite poorly.. Jot 2 seems like a good amp when used from the balanced headphone output (not unlike Magnius). Single ended it is a little underwhelming looking at their in-house testing report. Overall definitely better than Jot 1 though.

Does Schitt's own measurements reflect that? I know it one point they weren't doing the measurements of their equipment but it seems like they are now so that's surprising.

Already had the Ares II - did you have something specific in mind?
