Hey guys

got irritated by my phone as a portable audio source and I'm looking for an upgrade.
I have a RHA t20i IEM .

I'd like the portable source to be able to play qobuz (or a better alternative) in the future, I use spotify for now. So I guess I'll run a wifi hotspot on my phone and connect the portable to that?
Then I'd also like to be able to use it in my car through bluetooth.
And obviously lossless files as well.

I was thinking of buying a v30 but that would be a bit above my budget.

I also saw there were players of Fiio that support wifi and bluetooth, would those work? Do you guys have a solution/tip? Budget around 200 euros.

Buy second hand V30.

I would recommend the radsone ES100, amazing sound features app and battery life. I have a quad dac LG G7 and the es100 has more powerful output soundstage and details.

Good luck

I don't understand how that's gonna work. Do I have to stream my music from my current phone to the es100?
Can the es100 then in it's turn stream it from the es100 to my car?

I was also looking at the shanling m2, fiio m6 but i really don't want that wifi noize, xduoo x20, pioneer xdp-02u (tidal could be a good alternative as well) or the activo ct10

What do you think? What would be a better option?
