    Please consider periodic audio Silicon dac. Probably the most attractive form factor for a portable DAC, atleast imo.

    I keep my usb c always attached to my Tanchjim Space. Saves time from removing and attaching everytime.

    Moondrop dawn pro, have you tried already? If not can we get a review? Great video!

      @des7royerz Absolutely! I've actually had the pleasure of trying out the Moondrop Dawn Pro at an audio show. It was surprisingly smaller and lighter than I expected, and the tactile buttons felt really nice to use. When it comes to portability, I still prefer the Tanchjim Space Lite, but what really stood out to me about the Moondrop Dawn Pro is its 4.4mm output at this price point. If you're looking for a solid choice that has 4.4mm output, I'd definitely recommend giving it a try!

    Great comparison video! The Fosi DS1 is superior to the DS2, its a warmer, better resolving ES9038Q2M dac that has power for days. Too bad it's too heavy to be as portable as it should be.
    Forgot to mention, I love the BTR7, the KA5 offers a similar sonic profile from a more traditional dongle. The KA5 allows you to change tracks as well which is something every manufacturer should include.

      The DS1 sounds intriguing-I'll definitely have to look into it. Thanks for sharing the info! As for the KA5, it seems like a great alternative, especially with the OLED display. The track-changing feature is a nice touch too, something more manufacturers should consider including. I know the BTR7 includes that feature.

    Id suggest fiio ka11 for portability. Smaller and more power than space lite

    • @Atechreviews
      @Atechreviews  3 місяці тому

      Thanks for the suggestion! Is the FiiO KA11 really smaller than the Space Lite? It sounds like a great option for portability, especially with its small size, price, and impressive power output.

      I just got one since output power and Apple dongle quality sound was what I needed, but it has clear issues with bass at least. Need to compare further, but at least I don't recommend it for headphones even if it can drive the volume of most cans. Maybe no issue with IEMs, but need to test.

      @@Atechreviews Probably its features with a display screen tbh. Also the 4 filters on it actually do create a difference in sound signature. The perfect product for me would be the looks and the execution of sound of the Aune Yuki, the features of the tp50 and the output power and USB c cable of the snowynight.
