Hello . Recently ordered Simgot ea500 ML and now I'm looking for dac. What model can you recommend for this iem model? If genres of music matter then I listen every rock genre, jpop, jazz. Colorfly cda m1p is good one ?
Dongle DAC under 100$

I've got the EA500 also. The Tanchjim Space performs as well as many desktop models for $90 on Amazon. The Apple USB to 3.5mm works great also for $9.

I have the Colorfly CDA M1P, and I really enjoy it. Warm, sort of analog sounding, but still has clear highs. I am not an "audiophile" but I do know good sounding music. I also have the iBasso DC04 Pro and it is also an excellent choice.
I don't have the Simgot's tho. I use both dongles with Hidiz MP145 Planar iems and with TINHIFI T3+.

The EA100LM is very easy to drive and you don't need a too powerful source.
Even a $10 Apple dongle can drive it decently (Apple dongle is neutral but doesn't have much power for demanding stuff).

It's highly sensitive(123dB@w21ohm). Most USB DACs can power it sufficiently. From the Apple dongle to Shanling UA4, there are lots of options to choose from.
I truly appreciate all of the invaluable advice you've given me. It has made a significant impact on my decision-making process. Thank you!

Let us know what you decide on...and how you like it.
That's easy, get a Truthear SHIO - best dongle under 100.
Just get the Apple. It will be fine.
I'm sorry, but that is very expensive overkill for a sensitive IEM. The Simgots do not need that kind of power.
