A much anticipated change in the form factor, add a lot of convenience when carrying. It's amazing how USB DACs has improved over the years.

Hope you guys can get your hands on the Fiio KA13 as well. Same DAC chip I think, but they added an Amp to the mix which increases the power considerably. Only about $20-30 more depending on your location. Pretty crazy value!

@@f_society9151 Hello! Well, it doesn't make bad equipment sound "better," but it definitely scales the function of our equipment better. Think of the DAC as your graphics card for a laptop. Most graphics cards work fine for most uses, but when you play heavy games, which in the audio world is like high quality music files, a the regular graphic card can play it, but it loses out on showing the nicest and most detailed qualities of the game. So, this is what the dongle does, it sort of allows for more of the music to be pumped out for a lower volume setting, and that in turn makes it sound better because you get more details and just a generally better feel of the equipment you're listening on.

​​@@f_society9151no. All dacs do the same thing. Transform audio from digital to analog. Hearing a difference between them is just placebo. They're good if you want more volume than your phone's headphone jack, or if you want balanced audio if you have interference.

@@f_society9151 Improved Sound Quality: Phones typically have a basic DAC and amplifier that prioritize efficiency and cost over ultimate sound quality. A dedicated DAC and amplifier will generally have better quality components that provide a cleaner, more accurate conversion of digital audio to analog. This results in clearer, more detailed sound with better dynamics. Higher Power Output: A dedicated headphone amplifier can provide more power than a typical smartphone. This is particularly important for headphones that are harder to drive, though less critical for efficient IEMs like the Blessing 3. Nonetheless, even for easier-to-drive IEMs, the extra power ensures that you can listen at any volume without distortion. Reduced Noise and Interference: Smartphones can introduce electrical noise from other internal components like the CPU and wireless signals. A dedicated DAC and amplifier are designed to minimize such interference, thus offering a cleaner signal path and reducing background noise. Better Handling of High-Resolution Audio: While some smartphones support high-resolution audio, dedicated DACs are often designed to handle a wide range of audio formats and resolutions with better fidelity. They can decode higher resolution files natively, ensuring you get the most out of your high-resolution audio tracks. Enhanced Volume and Gain Control: Dedicated headphone amplifiers offer more precise volume control and multiple gain settings, allowing you to fine-tune the listening level and dynamics according to your preferences and the specific needs of your headphones. Improved Stereo Imaging and Soundstage: A high-quality amplifier can improve the separation between channels and enhance the soundstage, making the audio feel more spacious and immersive. This is particularly noticeable in well-recorded music where instrument placement and spatial cues are key.

Hey! Thanks so much for checking out the review. I only have the 4.4 version of the original Dawn, so the only direct comparisons I could do was with the 4.4 outputs. I couldn't find the power output of the 3.5, but usually, it is about half of the balanced power output, which would be around 60 mW. That's more than enough power for almost any IEM. So you should be safe just getting the Dawn Pro if you mainly listen to IEMs. I can't really hear a difference in bass quality when switching from the 3.5 to 4.4 using IEMs. The only time I noticed a difference was with full-size headphones.

The BTR5 is a completely different beast from the Dawn Pro. The BTR5 is basically a BT device that can be used as a wired dac/amp. It has WAY more features than the Dawn, like a LED display, a battery, a mic, NFC, etc. It also puts out double the power from its 2.5mm balances output (240mW), has a dual balanced DAC chipset, a dedicated app, hands-free calling, among other things. If you want features like this, the BTR5 is a no-brainer. If you want a dac/amp with a sole purpose being just that without all the bells and whistles, the Dawn should be better. I have/have had Fiio dac/amps on the past. I also have the BTR3K that I use when I want BT. Sound-wise, The 3K (through its 2.5mm bal out) has a warm-ish sound that has decent detail and resolution but based on how the Dawn was described, it sounds like it might have better clarity and detail.

I suggest you buy a real digital audio player (DAP) instead of LG smartphone with audiophile features. For budget ones the Hiby R3ii comes to mind (I'm buying this myself soon enough). A dedicated DAP has the advantage of not draining your phone's battery and vice versa. Phone is for communicating, DAP for music listening. With Bluetooth enabled DAP, the phone can easily be connected to the DAP. Or if a DAP is out of your budget or impractical, then buy a dongle like this Moondrop (or even go cheaper with one of those Jcally types). Why not the audiophile phone like the LG V40? Because smartphones come and go, you don't want to tie in your music listening to a smartphone. There might be other phone brands with better features than the V40, so you don't need to compromise with an all in one.

@@eliasthanatos I just ordered the topping dx1 . What do you think about it ? Cause I been thinking I only use for desktop. So might as well go for something bigger. Can the topping dx1 drive them?

Same question 🤔

Does this work with iPhone? I’ve been seeing some reviews saying it doesn’t

It works with iPhone 15 and iOS 17.4. but the MOONDROP App does not recognize the dongle. So the Dac is ok but don’t expect to be able to change the settings with MOONDROP Link App.

What are the iems at 9:35?
