Although it's not the most powerful portable DAC/amp out there, the Zerda ITM01 is quite an interesting device that's capable of powering most headphones, save for the most power-hungry ones. Here's my full review → https://www.soundphilereview.com/reviews/ikko-zerda-itm01-review-14353/

DarrylGI’m pretty sure I was aware of that… What do you mean? Did I miss a quality small form factor DAC?

2v at 32ohms is like 80mW. Way too low to drive any headphones in a decent manner. Strictly for iems. There are far better out there for a few dollars more.

“this dac is ‘strictly for iems’…” If I’m embarrassed, imagine the embarrassment of the guy who believes the output power rating is referring to the DAC section.

I get what you’re saying, but the dongle dac/amp field is hyper competitive and choices are plenty. Compared to what’s out there, this product appears far inferior to others that do it better for only a few dollars more. For example, the 9038s/d and S9 Pro have far greater output and can actually drive full sized cans decently and also measure cleaner. You might have to pay $25-$50 more but in absolute terms that’s not much compared to the performance delta. There are other examples too. I don’t think this product is something that should be recommended. My 2 cents.

Anyone have this for their iPhone, how is it? It specifies Decoding rate: 32-bit / 384 kHz (PCM), Dop128 (DSD) but what about for lighting connections? I thought lighting is a limiting factor compared to C type.

Although I'm just a random person on the internet, I'd recommend you don't buy this, at least from Drop.

you can buy it for $59 on Amazon and get it in a week rather than 2 months.
you'll have to pay shipping on Drop. AKA, that price of $48 is gonna be a lot closer to $59 from Amazon.

As a DAC AMP combo however, this thing is pretty spot on. Magnetic cable is actually awesome too since I've gotten headphones yanked off my head one too many times from a chair or desk. I did also see from a review that you can get additional Magnetic cables, but I'm not sure where this guy got them from. He was using them in a hot swapping kind of situation which is nice.
