Anybody know the dimensions of the W2? Is it bigger than a Dragonfly Red?

More importantly how does it compare to the EarMen Sparrow? I'm thinking about grabbing a UM MEST mkII and looking to upgrade my portable DAC from an old DFR. Trying to decide between the Sparrow and the W2. Thanks!

For the size comparison, I don't have Red but it should be longer than Cobalt, and Cobalt is about the same size as W2, including usb-plug portion.

Btw, W2 and Cobalt sound performance is on par, though Cobalt lacking in bass impact, more neutral relative to W2. But once you start comparing functionality and design, W2 is way far ahead with what it has to offer.

Ok cool. Thanks so much.

I tried the DFC once and I didn't love it. I actually preferred my DFR. Since I'm planning on getting the MESTmkii and I've heard they already have a ton of bass, I'm not sure I want something more bassy than the Cobalt. My problem with the MEST OG was it was too Vshaped for my taste (and I couldn't get a good fit).

I'll wait until I see a comparison of the W2 and the Sparrow to decide. But thanks again for help with the size!

A wonderful combination: DUNU SA6 with Spinfit CP360 on the W2 - bliss.

Really tempted to buy the w2, only thing that worries me is the bad ui of uapp (for example no like button/indicator). Might end up getting a fiio m11pro, the m15 & ibasso dx300 are too big for me.
If it helps, I have a LG V60 running UAPP to my W2 and they work beautifully. What do you mean by no like button? I run Quboz and there are like buttons for the music and I can make all my playlists.
