It would be a good start if you wrote what you think of the improvement in listening and whether you think there has been. Many have distrusted what I wrote (the usual audio professors), but I don't care, I just wanted to help anyone who wanted to try to improve their dongles. This is enough for me, after all if I signed up on a forum it was precisely to share what I was learning and learn things I didn't know. That's all.
You should also get the powerbank because it is also suitable for low current loads so you don't risk getting too much current to the dongle. Remember the order to connect them:
Sorry to confuse. I did but couldn't get it to work at first then I found one of your pictures made a couple adjustments and have listened to couple hours and appreciate your advice to everybody I think everyone should take you up on it who is listening at home
If I remember correctly you said you had the iBasso DC04PRO... well with that mod it becomes an absolute reference dac. I use it at work with the Letshuoer S12 PRO and it is absolutely wonderful what I hear.
Funny you should mention that the DC04 Pro is the one I tried with it for a couple of hours and I was pretty impressed ! I'm betting the power-hungry RU6 is really going to benefit from the mod too. I'm thinking about an M12 or an M15 or an Earmen Colibri. Other than the M15 which I know you really really dig Do you know much about the other two ? I think I might be addicted to buying these things. I've seen Apogee grooves around for pretty cheap I don't know if those are still good they're kind of old
Based on the rules of eights, this dongle is not the best option for IEMs that have low impedance, as it might skew the frequency response, especially for those multi drivers that have variable impedance curves.
It is probably best suited for harder to drive high impedance gear, for stuff > 160 ohms in impedance. YMMV.

From the measurements the most efficient should be the L&P W4EX followed by the L&P W4 and I would also add the excellent Questyle M15 which is very economical in consumption, but perhaps not at the level of the first two.

In these matters, if I were you, I wouldn't care about the 100 dollars more or less. It is useless to buy something that we are not convinced of just because of a difference in price and then as soon as it arrives, put it on sale (for half of what you paid for it) because you wanted the other one. You put a lot more money into it and you're not even happy. Having said that, in my opinion, the best value for money among all the dongles is the iBssso DC04PRO and it costs more or less the amount you would like to spend.
