@@gaspaider I've just added an update to my comment above as I forgot to do that. I've had both dongles and the XL1 would be my pick given it costs under £90.
Same mate, been looking for months for something I can use with my phone that's good sound quality but at the same time cheap and I have yet to find something.
@@alouifiras7724if you’re looking for something relatively cheaper with similar performance to these higher end dongles, check out the Onix Alpha xl1. Super impressive performance & features for the price. I’ve heard it has a few compatibility issues, so check to make sure it’ll work with your device(s).
Thanks for such review, Josh. These dongles are getting riddiculously good. I recently almost completly switched from desktop dac/amp (nothing fancy, Topping L30 and Fiio K9 that i had for a couple of months) to Fiio KA13. It has 550W at 32 ohm from balanced output and man, it just sounds so good, i almost cant tell a difference between USB dongle and basic desktop dac/amp.
My personal experience: the best I’ve heard the IE600 (balanced) with (better than DX3 Pro +, Fiio K7, Fiio M11, Moondrop Dawn Pro) and also better with the HD800 than my Fiio K7 on balanced in my opinion. The power is incredible. From my pc it’s at 10/100 with the HD800 on balanced and high gain for my listening volumes. With some IEMs I can’t go over 6/100 on low gain balanced. Highly recommend it :)
I love this dac amp. I use it with my Cayin Ru7 & Shanling Ua5. The Q15 is analytical with decent power. The Ru7 is more analogue in sound with more power than the M15. Unfortunately, it drains battery power faster than the other 2 dangles. The Ua5 sound signature is smoother but adequately detailed. It also has the benefit of connecting with the iPhone as it has a built-in in battery, hence not drawing power. Thanks for the review Josh.
@dustydynasty802 Personally, I use the Ru7 more than the Q15. Both are great dac/amps. You can not go wrong with either one. However, if I had to choose one, it would be the Ru7.
It’s great. Sounds neutral just like nearly every other little dongle dac. It’s just as clean as this but with more features. Good features too. The app is second to none. Many other (more pertinent) reviews exist on the tube. Much more detailed and accurate information than what Josh generally expresses
To this day and time, the R2R dongle exists that I know of. It is the HiBy FC6 USB Headphone R2R DAC/AMP with Darwin Architecture NOS/OS. So audiophiles may need to check out this one as well.
Man I was so excited to get this. Plugged in my andros on low gain, cant get it passed 3 notches on the iphone without blowing an eardrum out. Have the topping g5 coming tomorrow, so hopefully It covers everything (Including bluetooth)
What's a good small DAC to go with the Google Pixel 8 Pro? I've seen people online have issues with the iFi Go Link and the Moondrop Dawn staying connected on this specific phone model.
I love your videos but could you possibly put the names of products you are talking about at the bottom to the screen as you talk quite fast and I have no idea what items you are talking about some of the time. You showed some headphones but I didn't get what they are called. Thank you.
I wonder what you think of this M15i with easy to drive planar magnetics such as the Hifiman Ananda Nano or Edition XS... I tested it and they seem to run beautifully with it, but then I do not have a desktop amp.
I think you're expecting whoever might be watching your videos to know everything already. How about explaining what the heck an IM is, please? OHhhh! WAIT! You mean IEM, RIGHT? Might wanna say IN-EAR or earbud type. But I got a funny feeling I still don't know what the heck you're talking about... lol 😂
Great video as always! I really wonder how the HiBy FD3 is faring in the market as it’s only $79 and at least on paper it’s packing a lot of great tech and specs.
Wow this sounds like the perfect semi portable semi desktop wired amplifier for when you have the mythical IEM thst requires some amplification but not too much and you want to pay $200 to add a little inconvenience to hour life
What would be better for mobile audiophiles, something like this or a mobile audio player like something from Sony or Astell & Kern? Been really wanting something that really brings the audio quality that I can bring with me on the go.
High end digital audio players from Sony or A&K still perform better but they cost so much more. Biggest problem with these expensive audio players is the batteries as they will degrade over time and there's no way to replace them. A premium dongle DAC like the M15 can compete with a lot of mid-range audio players for much cheaper, you can still use your phone (which runs far smoother than any audio players) and don't have to worry about battery degradation. Downside is the dongle is a bit awkward to use on the go.
This amp is nice and all but it's just too expensive compared to other portable dac amps that are the same size and do the same thing with little to no sound quality difference. Most of the time these companies have one manufacturer and they buy from these manufacturers and then put their own name brand and price on it while this one actually costs like, $30 from the factory if not cheaper. You just have to find similar products in some sites especially chi-fi.

Just seems like the old dragonflys really - good sound in a small form factor but a pretty limited use case. I'm much more of a fan of stuff like the Fiio BTR range of the Qudelix 5K as you get a nice sounding device with a lot of extra functionality. Maybe some people want a more simple device but then paying more than a more feature-rich product just doesn't make sense to me.
I love my fiio btr 5, I don’t currently have any high impedance headphones that require a ton of power. I pair it mostly with my Timeless 7HZ and it sounds amazing! For headphones I use it with either Meze 99, Grado SR225x, or B&W P7 & it does a great job at bringing out the best in each
Josh, I've got a pair of Beyer DT770 and I simply LOVE them, I use them with a Douk U10 and they sound incredible. I'm planning on moving forward and getting something better, do you think a move to a DT1990 would be nice? Taking into consideration what I've already heard with the 770, do you think it would be a nice upgrade? Would you recommend something else? Maybe changing the amp as well? Best regards for your family!
one of the most sad things when I got my amp was the fact I cant really use it with items bcs of the noise floor being so loud :'( I wish more amp/dac reviews had that into consideration
ı have iPhone 15 pro max..I want to buy Sony Walkman a 306 series or this. which is bes sound...ah sorry my headphone is Bose quietcomforth ultra 60 and
this dongle exist 2y ago....non apple way. and its true. it cant drive planar IEM (dont be dumb and even state it can for headphones that...ridiculous)... this dongle is great for non sensitive or non hard to drive IEMs. i have both version.
Anyone willing to give recommendations for a portable dac/amp fitting these criteria- -Bluetooth 5.1 minimum (5.2^ preferable) -6 or more hours of battery life on single charge -Independent Volume Control -a 3.5mm port -a very neutral sound -24 bit or higher audio option
Qudelix 5K Bluetooth range is far superior to the FiiO Btr 3 (I owned both..), and then the Qudelix app is just on a completely different level, offers pre-set tunings by Crinacle/Oratory/Super Review for just about every IEM on the market, or custom equalizer. Great battery life, it’s really a gem at an affordable price.
@@robertmurray2340 yea they would be from people like you who don’t know shit about audio.

I can run the SUSVARA from my Phone (MIAD01) and it sounds AS good as it gets.
