I wanted to share my excitement for beginning this journey into the audiophile world. Just bought the HifiMan Sundaras but I have a couple of questions:

  1. Since I would prefer a portable Dac/amp to listen on my MBP and Pixel 7 Pro around the house, is it ok to opt for the Dragonfly Red? Or the Quadelix 5K is better?

  2. Just to know, how better is the zen DAC v2 compared with the ones above?

    As someone who has owned the Sundara and still owns the ifi dac and also a Qudelix (and also a fiio K7), I can confirm they all sound great and you will be very happy, especially with the utility of a Qudelix.The bass button is extremely useful on the ifi, but obviously it’s not portable. All in all, it’s a good choice either way you choose!

    I use a Hiby R3 pro sabre with my 4xx. It is great in so many ways. You just have to get a 2.5mm cable.
