Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • those would be $30 FiiO KA11 and JCAlly JM20 Max.
  • or a bit unknown JCAlly JM20 Max.
  • The JCALLY JM20 Max that someone else recommended is more powerful AND has better sounding performance
  • HE400se + a JCally JM20 Max dongle would be my pick.
  • JCally JM20 Max (a cheaper KA11 alternative) can drive almost anything including the Ananda Stealth on my head while writing this with a -5.5dB pre-gain for EQ to loud listening SPL at 40/100 volume.

Cons

  • Buy alongside a fiio KA11/shanling ua mini/Jcally jm20 max (same chips) for power.

Honestly I would just buy the Jcally JM20 Max for $20 and use it with your phone.

Further, with REALLY good dongle DACs being dirt cheap (Jcally JM20 Max, FiiO KA11 for example) your phone becomes a very capable DAP.
