For those with some experience, as I'm considering getting a portable balanced setup, would I be better suited getting a balanced dap, or a balanced dac/amp that I can plug a phone into. I'm looking to find a setup to go balanced with my Rose Pudding, and I'm unsure if its more cost effective just to use a phone. I know I could get something inexpensive with balanced capabilities like the Lotoo.

Pono  or Geekout v2+ ?

Perhaps the Geekout, but Pono's odd connection for balanced lessens the likelihood I'd choose it.

You'd be missing out then.  Pono's balanced implementation is one of if not the best there is.  TrinityAudio sells a balance mmcx cable for pono and right now you can pick it up for $15 shipped with their head-fi discount.  Plus you can buy adapters from Dyson cables pretty cheap.
