I have a Fii o A3 I use from the phone outputs of a 2017 Samsung J7 and a 2017 Kindle HD8, both OTG capable.
Will using a DAC from their micro USB be a step up sonically over just an amp from their analog output s?
More specifically, the Samsung will plug into my truck head unit while the Kindle will be my source for porch and cruise ship e-reading and music with Hifiman Edition S and Senn PX200 ii phones.
The A3 amp alone does a credible job of driving my HE-400i's from the Kindles headphone out,but I suspect it can be better.
Looking at the Fii o E17k since its pretty cheap right now.
What say ye?
