JCally JM20

I'm on the verge of recommending $20 JCAlly JM20 again for that specific use only, the JM20 uses a CX43131 chip which some people have issues with though

Those dongles already measure on par with what can be had with pricier desktop devices, having Signal to Noise and Distortion at 112dB for unbalanced, and 116dB for balanced outputs. ... say $20 for JCAlly JM20

Alternative would be a dongle combined with an amp, something like $20 JCAlly JM20 with $30 Douk U3 amp (7.2Vrms)

you could simply get something like a $20 JCAlly JM20 dongle which has measured output clarity of 112dB SiNAD which is actually on par with older (yet still very good) JDS Atom DAC+.

I think reasonable would be something like $20 JCAlly JM20. It was measured to perform considerably better than Qudelix 5k also mentioned here

or you could get like $24 Jcally JM20(technically $30 msrp but it's always available for 24) dongle DAC to use with headphones

For DACs choose either TRN black pearl ($40) or Jcally JM20 ($20)

My recommendation is the Jcally JM20 for about $20

I'd get a Jcally JM20 (or MAX) for 19€ on Aliexpress. Same performance, if not better, and same 2V output which is great for L30 II input sensitivity.

For a dongle I am looking for jcally jm20 from AliExpress (it was somewhat the cheapest option with cs43131).
