nice and informative- I have the Fiio Q5S and it drains the iphone- was wondering what you think - and I know the audiosciencereview gave Fiio Q5s a bad review for specs- do you think the PAWS1 is a good choice or do you think I should step up to a DAP?

@John Massaria - Hm, I think that S1 won't be much of an upgrade above Q5s, in fact Q5s may be a bit better, so I would suggest instead looking into DAPs, like M11 PRO, Hiby R3 PRO (if you want it to be the same budget as S1), or even iBasso DX160, which is a sweet spot price / performance wise

Any problems with EM interference? Will the S1 downsample DSD256 to DSD128 or just not play it at all?

Does anyone know, where I can get a good price for the lightning cable? My cable pin broke.

@SteffSergeant - Aliexpres usually. FiiO, ddhifi and some Tempotec cables are available if I'm not mistaken. Also amazon, https://amzn.to/3sKWko8
