HM-801, C4 and HM-602.
 
 
With regards of the DAPs based on Wolfson DACs (say SFlo:2): I do not want to spend time on them. I tried numerous Wolfson-based portable USB DACs. Even the best of them (D12 with dual WM8740) yields to any of three DAPs I mentioned above.
 

Oh okay. Do the C4 and the HM-801 have the same SQ?

801 is the best. C4 DAC is more digitally sounding, amp is weaker and has bass roll-off.

isnt an amp redundant/give insignificant effect if you use IEM ?
 

No, not if you use the right amp. And have some good IEM.

Not sure whether google translator will do good job. http://www.erji.net/read.php?tid=949536&keyword=801
 
Although people think differently to their performances most of them agree 801 and C4 are the best two, then is DPI. I'd ever owned 801/602, t51 and the studio-not "v" version, I'd much prefer 801 over other three.

Well I think this perfectly solved my question. Thanks so much. HM-801 it is then.
