I have a Fiio DAC and i have no complaints.
But i dont have golden ears that can hear the difference between good dacs, excellent dacs etc.
Above a certain level, its good enough for me
I got a EK10 bc my old MSI motherboard had noticeably worse audio quality than my android phone/MacBook. The EK10 is totally fine for my usage (mostly just driving ATH-M50X’s)
I have a K7.
My only con with it is that the headphone jack doesnt cut the line outputs. So, i had to make an inline switch to mute my speakers for headphones only.
I am now wishing it also had XLR outputs, but Im sure i can pick up a nice transformer balancing box from somewhere.
What do you recommend that isn’t either bullshit or $1500

I have a FiiO Q3, I recommend it too.
I’ve heard good things about the EK10/Olympus2, but haven’t tried it myself.

Rme babyface is pretty neat. Though it doesn’t support linux very well.
That looks like a phone from 2004 and I need like, a headphone jack.
