Is there a small reasonably cheap phone I can use as a transport for a dac/amp. I find phones better for me than daps especially when at work
I have an option right now togive up my Lg v30 and switch to a Exynos Note 9 for my all in one device and a replacement for my audiophile music needs. To let everyone I value pure sound quality over all the features that the note 9 currently has. Am I making a mistake? Someone please talk me out of it if it's abackwards move. Thanks
Get note9 and add ES100 for ldac.
I should also add that i'm also using low impedence IEMs flare audio Golds. So the exynos DAC in this note 9 version should be enough to drive these iems properly? I don't want carry extra devices around though. Are you saying that gong Bluetooth with the ES100 will match or surpass my wired setup with the Lg v30?

Deleted. Misunderstood that ES100 receives.
Do I understand that the ES100 is also an amp. I have been considering a portable dac / amp, ldac headphones, or the Shure usb c to iem cable. The is capable of 24bit/96.
I dont need anything better than 24/96 so ES100 interests me for my note 9
Got my lg v30+ few days back for 411€. such a beast audiophile phone. Wondering if Vivo Nex S has any similarity in audio department.
I have G7 and Nex S on hand at the moment and am planning to sell the Nex S. Regarding audio (in aux or high impedance mode for G7), Nex has a warmer sound which may lead to some added musicality, but not as energetic / punchy. On the other hand, G7 is just very balanced, neutral and precise sound. Currently Nex S have a bit of issue with LDAC support which it stutters when listening with Sony WH1000XM3 headphone. I'm not sure if Nex S has the similar impedance check mechanism though. Don't get me wrong, they both are beast when it comes to portable audio, I just prefer the sound of LG.
Nex S has similar impedance check. You can use adapter trick aux mode just like LG.
