I will be listening to the a4's with my lg g4, will getting a 100$ portable dac/amp (cant waste more than this on dac/amp) a significant improvement that is worth it?
Maybe aomething like xduoo or fioo or whatever 100$ budget amp.

For $100 there are plenty of good DAPs about at the moment. More convenient than stacking. Check the Hidizs AP60 or AGPTEK Rocker.

Is there any thread for sub 100 daps or should i just google search
"best portable dap for under 100$"?

There's no thread for sub 100 DAPs as far as I know. What kind of features do you want? There's Bluetooth, battery life, maximum supported bitrates, color screens etc.

Best sq, and battery is very important.
Maximum bit rate i dont really understand the difference im anewbie.
Screen doesn't matter much.

Take a look at the Rocker if you are in the US. It doesn't have all the features as some others like the Hidizs but it has a CIRRUS LOGIC CS42L51 STEREO DAC and should have far better battery life. Also it's cheaper at around $60.

I'm sure others will have some suggestions too. The Shanling M1 comes to mind and can be bought for about $100 but I think the battery life is only about 10 hours.

I got a hifimediy 9018 and it really brings out the lza4's really well. Loving the combo it sounds way better than my fiio e17. Only problem is it stutters when i try use it with my phone however i got it for my laptop anyway.

Its abit too pricey for me though, more than 100$ for a dap is too much for me.

If you are using LG smart phone just download the Black music player from play store  for free,  it has a very powerful and amazing amp with very clean sound ,  just try it before purchasing any expensive stuff , , , :sunglasses:

Pick up the Shanling M1 used from FS thread...if $125 is too much (current AliX shipped lowest price)
