Worth the buck!

I have been using this for a 2-3 weeks now with my phone (Android) mostly during travels and I must say I absolutely love it. I feel like it has that well known FiiO sound which has a slight bump in bass but I might me biased as I am already using this with a slightly warm IEM. I wasn't able to find this bump in bass when I used the same previously with my laptop connected to a dragonfly. But either ways the listening experience is not polluted and is actually quite fun with NOS mode. I have tried other filters and found that they add a slight sparkle to your mp3 files but FLACs have both treble and bass expanded but i particularly do not like it. So NOS is for me. It also has two gain modes high and low and in high gain setting there is a slight hissing in the background when listening to high pitched vocals otherwise the background is absolutely dark in the low gain and this is one of the main reason I love this DAC. I would recommend it to anyone for daily use. The volume controls are on point with their own OS and the FiiO control app is quite friendly to use. The better use of this DAC was however when I plugged into my laptop with USB A audio, I am not sure why but USB A audio over USB 2.0 sounds superior to USB C audio in both USB 1.0 and USB 2.0 modes. The build is quite sturdy and finish is just right. The resolution however depends on the IEMs you pair it with it makes worse sounding IEMs worse and awesome sounding IEMs awesome. Overall imo I think this is a very affordable, portable and a high quality DAC. You cannot go wrong with this. Thanks to HPZ for prompt delivery with constant tracking updates. Keep up the good work!

Oh and one another thing, while tracking my delivery I found that the product went to Bangalore from Chennai and then got delivered back to me again at Chennai?! I don't know why it couldn't have been delivered directly from Chennai to Chennai, it would cut a lot of movement I hope. But ya the packaging itself was perfect and untampered so I ain't complaining much.

Small but clean / powerful

Great piece of DAC to go with... Clean sound without coloration, 265 mV output with the balanced option punches its impact.. only downside being the FIIO Control App does not work with Apple OS...
