Few impressions I read say they don't hear a difference with stockWondering how the Fiio Q5s is doing with the THX amp module, is it worth the upgrade?

Meizu PROHi Everyone, I'm looking for a DAC+Amp with buttons budget is around $50. I don't know much about amps so would like everyone's help in making a decision and the reason for bare minimum budget. Thanks in advance.
Apologies for not clarifying but I don't need something portable. I have a Hiby W3 for that. Something suitable for desktop purpose is what I need. I'm intrigued by Douk Audio tube amp listed in OP although I have zero clue about how tube amps are better than other amps. But it's all about exploration and I'm happy learn from those who know better than meMeizu PRO
Your budget is low, so the meizu Pro is right. There's no worthwhile Dac/amp worth getting at 50 euro.Hi, audio noob here, I recently got my hands on some rarely used MR77x's for 20€ (!!!) and since I wanna use them with my phone (Sony XZ Premium), I need an portable Headphone Amp (since it is a phone, combined with an DAC might be better but got no clue, someone told me, sonys allready have decent DAC's built in the jack but I really dont know), mainly (you guessed it) for bass intensity. Budget would be 50€ (poor european student over here) what would you recomend? (have googled about the meizu pro, that was recomendet a few posts ago but didn't find anything about bass and those 57mm drivers aren't IEM's either so what shall I get? )
You may have already found an answer or just bought it, but this guys seems to think it's really good. It seems hard to believe but it uses a DAC that is a step up from the DragonFly Red. Actually the same one in the Monoprice Monolith USB DAC.This is the only Chifi DAC thread I could find, so I hope it's the right place to ask about https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32932392383.html
I tried a borrowed https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-3-5mm-Audio-Adapter-version/dp/B00FH1KTFI/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1RUPIDS073CXQ&keywords=logitech+usb+sound+card&qid=1579107668&sprefix=logitech+usb+soun,aps,167&sr=8-3. It seems to remove the coil whine I hear through my sensitive IEMs at my PCs front USB port, but I thought it made the sound quality more hollow and veiled. Is the Lusya the best budget version of something that will perform the same function as the Logitech without affecting the sound quality?
Meizu Pro look great, but its less powerfull than Tempotec Sonata HD PRO wich is suppose to be able to deliver 110mW@32ohm and 128db snr. (it adapt the voltage to output impedance...wich is a little strange)Your budget is low, so the meizu Pro is right. There's no worthwhile Dac/amp worth getting at 50 euro.
I have one. Its not good. not powerfull with like 125mW@32ohm. take a WALNUT V2S or Zishan Z2 instead....its more powerfull and can be used as a DAP too. It's smaller but thicker.Has anyone tried this $20 portable amp from Neoteck?

It has favourable reviews and is dirt cheap. I'm actually planning to buy but want to know if someone has used this or any products of this brand? Thanks.
