Thoroughly enjoying the simplicity of a stand-alone DAP. So far, loving the sound with this pairing. Will need to test out some of my other toys with it, but I'm quite impressed with the SQ of the new AK120.

My new DAC/tube Amp.
VentureCraft Go-Dap TT + Fitear MH335DW.
Pre-amp stage is Raytheon 6111SQ Sub MT tube. For power-amp stage, they use NJM 8080 that surface mount onto the PCB, so it can't be replaced. My pre-order deal also come with dual Raytheon 5707 tube but they will ship later this month due to last minute modification.
My initial impression on TT is that it's warm and very smooth. Clarity is not as good as LME49860.
Here is the inside.
Thsnk you mtthefirst
This what I worry about clarity , if less than my go dap x LME 49860 , than this time I skip
How is power wise , which one is more power ?

I wish, but I can say with 100% certainty... you wouldn't want to take this cable outside. It might be well suited for traveling, meaning in an area were you can sit down, not moving around, but the one (rather larger) con that I have with the cable is the ergonomics and fragility. Even adjusting and moving my head (bopping my head to the beat) can bring some weird strain on the cable which is a definite no-no. The sound is amazing, so if you are okay with a cable that keeps you stationary (for the most part) than the uBer might be for you. I haven't tried it on the go yet, but I'm scared to try, so if you get it, YMMV.
