CMoy and dac?

[ormen]

Hi

Is there anyone who uses an external dac with your CMoy? I use my SMoy with my android phone, and I believe I might have a good chance of improvement with a dac.

Whats your experience or thoughts?

Morten.

Here is a great sounding (and affordable) DAC based on the Sabre ES9023 chip. I use one from my Android phone.
HiFime Tiny Type-C DAC

Wow. That is one cheap dac.
Thank you for pointing that one out. Looks interesting.

They have better ones too. I have this one (Sabre ES9081) also:
Hifime Android DAC (ES9018K2M+SA9023)
It is better than the ES9023 in resolving detail, but only on good quality headphones and if you stream higher quality audio files (like Tidal Premium), or play FLAC files. I have ripped some of my CD's to FLAC and play them using the jetAudio app on my Android phone. But the ES9023 usb dac's are really great sounding for the price.

Thank you.
I've decided to go with a really cheap one. VE Odyssey.VE Odyssey - Discussions and Impressions Thread | Headphone Reviews and Discussion - Head-Fi.org

Now I just have to wait and see if this is good or not.
