Well my LG G8X has ES9218P built in DAC. So I guess LG phones are the exception to poor DACs on smartphones.

Hi Raghav,
Which are the better phones to use with external portable DACs ? And in general which phones are better for music(I mean they should be able to output Hi-Res)

Believe me this is most technical way to tell someone about DAC

[reaperz]

You are master in teaching in short and make it understandable.

This video is good, it will be really really nice, if you showed us the data, or waveforms generated by inbuilt dac and an external dac.

I have purchased an entry level DAC AMP from headphonezone which is ifi zen air dac to use with my Sennheiser HD599.
It changes colour depending on the audio source. Now I haven't been able to test it out because of lack of sample audio sources of different kind like DSD, Flaac with various bit rates. Can you suggest any site to test out this DAC?
It's currently not being used much as I am currently listening to music using apple music and that headphone through my phone which supports lossless audio.
Please suggest a streaming service to gainfully utilize the DAC.

Smartphone's headphone jack has a bitcrush-like noise/distortion because I daily drive sensitive IEMs not just for music and the distortion is especially noticeable in quiet environments. So I got a tiny DAC as a significantly cleaner audio source.

I am using an Edifier s2000 mkIII desktop speaker set. I am using currently streaming music, (Spotify mostly and sometimes Apple Music) via Bluetooth to hear on these speakers. Which DAC, if any, or any other amp or some other set up, I could use to improve the hearing experience on these speakers?

Hi Raghav ji, so happy to discover a channel devoted to audiophile perspective headphones.
A very short question.
I have nothing phone 2 which doesn't have a dedicated headphone jack.
It has a USB C 2.0 port.
Will the Apple USB C to 3.5mm jack dongle which has an inhuilt good quality DAC & costs just ₹900 work well with the NP2?
Or will the Oneplus passive dongle costing ₹370 work better with NP2?
I cannot afford more expensive DACs.
Once this is sorted out I'll probably buy the acclaimed Moondrop chu 2 IEM's.
I request a precise response, plz.
Regards
