May I inquire/suggest, could you also color label the warm/cold daps? Figured it might help those looking for pairing possibilities.

Good work btw.

Just iike my IEM Score Chart, I decided to share a DAP scoring list to give Head Fi'ers a basic comparison of DAPs.

There will surely be disagreements, but I would like you to know that I have been working on this for some time. I also took advices from my local / foreign fellow audiophiles, who have experience and knowledge about the these DAPs here.

The list can be expanded and edited over time.

Enjoy your music.

Nice original design based on actual Paw Gold. Looks like 3.5 mm and 4.4 mm jacks. Any news about the DAC used, single, dual mono?

What do the two scores in the first column, separated by a comma represent?

It's an average score of all the other scores for the particular DAP e.g. 9.13 etc

Have u tried ZX300? I know it's a midfi DAP but Imo, the balanced output on it sounds like WM1A Single Ended.

Pretty impressive for almost half the price of WM1A. Wonder how it'll fare in this chart

And thanks for chart! It'll be useful as a reference when i plan to upgrade sometime in the future
