    `Smooth, natural with a slight tint of warmth´ reminds me of Lotoo PAW S1. I'm curious if Allegro shares nearly the same sound signature with Lotoo. I'm currently using PAW S1. 😃 May I know the difference in sound signture between these two?

    The Allegro is slightly warmer than the S1. Technically the S1 is still very good today! If you are looking to upgrade do consider the Luxury and Precision W2 (it isn't super new so might be able to get it cheaper)

    Hi, which one would you suggest between this and the cda m1p? I use mainly mangrid tea mk1, simgot em6l and sennheiser hd600, i ve read that the colorfly became warm soon and it seems to be bulky

    Most dongles become warm after a while. The M1p is built better. Both these dongles have no problem with your iems but the HD600 deserves something that can make them shine. I think the choice between the 2 would be if you wanted more details get the M1P, if you want a more analog sound get the Allegro.

    Por que dices que colorfly es mas detallado que allegro? La mayoria coinciden en que no tiene tanto detalle en el agudo y que simgot dew 4x y tanchjim space le ganan y son similares a allegro.

    Which one in your experience is more analog sounding, the Colorfly CDA M1P or this Kiwi dongle? Surprised that an ESS could sound smoother than an AKM dac chip.

    @@LibericaBorneo Yeah, these days manufacturers are doing more to dongles. A large part of the sound can be attributed to the analog stage which can change the innate charecter of the DAC used.

    Why do reviewers never use DAPs? You all want your music run through an android stack, and then inturrupted by WA and Text messages, etc.. Something like 0.6% THD + N, kinda cancels the good spec on your dongle..
