Hi gang. I'm ignorant. Are there any amps that have these features?

-DAC
-Gain switch (2 or 3 position)
-User replaceable battery

I'm really only trying to compile a list so I can do a bit of research about the amps myself.

Thanks.

There are two that you need to know. The RSA predator. The Headamp Pico. Without a budget recommendation? Also include Source info. You will get more responses.

the total bithead has a DAC, gain switch, and runs on 4 AAA batteries, so i think it satisfies your requirements. sounds great too!

Add the GoVibe Petite to that list.

Duh! How could I forget that one. I actually owned it for a bit, but returned it to buy the iBasso D1.

UHA 3 falls into those specs.

I haven't seen the gain switch on this one. Do you have a pic?

 

[azncookiecutter]

I believe it's jumpers that control the gain. Check out oicdn's review thread, it does state there is a gain switch.

Thanks to everyone on this thread for the suggestions. Thought I should tell you that ended up with the RSA Predator. Check it out.

I'm wondering why are people posting the Predator and the Pico when it's not even have user replaceable batteries

Meier Corda 2MOVE or MOVE. absolutely worth every penny

I think they took "user replaceable" to mean "user accessible".

I think it wouldnt be an issue as the battery inside the Predator can last for years(9.6 according to ray). A user replaceable battery usually means short working span as normally they uses the 9v 270mAh...

Corda 2Move, Headsix, and XXS all have a gain jumper inside and all use replaceable 9v with convenient back access.
