DAC for tablet
Looking for a dac to use with a tablet then to musical paradise mp 301 tube amp. Tablet is Samsung tab S2, I use the headphone jack on the tube amp so not interested in it having a amp in it. Also want line in to run tablet to it with rca. Any suggestions? Also needs to be small footprint as my headphone setup is on my night stand so room is limited. Am I looking for unobtainable dac?

Have you considered adding a Chromecast Audio to your system? Cheap! Cast your source from your tablet to the Chromecast dongle, NO wires! The signal stays in the digital realm via toslink to any DAC you choose that accepts toslink. Sound quality can be further enhanced by inserting an IFi purifier between Chromecast Audio dongle and your DAC. I use an iPad Mini, Chromecast Audio, Schiit Modi Multibit, Schiit Jotunheim and very happy with results aurally as well as ergonomically.

I have Samsung S2 tablet... use Audiquest Dragonfly Red (DFR) in line out mode with external Gustard H10 amp for mine with USB Audio Player Pro. Can also run direct from the DFR if you wish:

Check out the Earstudio ES100. It's a Bluetooth DAC/Amp with an excellent Android app that allows you to control the device.
I use mine as a DAC/Pre-Amp for my DarkVoice tube amp and it works great. LDAC or Aptx from my Android devices and AAC from my iOS devices.

I mean, is the Grace SDAC not an option for some reason? But you would need a powered hub in between.

The Grace SDAC and JDS OL DAC are going to be the best compact options for something without an amp. Most marketed at the portable market include some level of amplification so they can drive things the average cellphone can't.

More bass!
I currently have the the HD 6XX, which sound great but, I'm am looking to upgrade the power of the bass as i really enjoy punchy low end EDM music. Any suggestions in the $200-$300 price range would be awesome.

Trying to add Topping LA90D amp to Topping A9D preamp
Any help would be appreciated...I added an amp to my streamer, dac, headphone amp/preamp system and am now not getting any music through the headphone jacks on the preamp - the specifics: Wiim Pro Plus - optical connection to - Topping D50 iii dac - TSR to XLR connection to - Topping A9D headphone amp/preamp (all worked fine as a headphone amp until I tried adding:) - XLR connection to - Topping LA90 D amp. Amp switches are set to bypass, stereo, low gain. In this configuration, I am not getting any music to either my SE or XLR headphone jacks. I made sure I switched the A9D to "preamp" and "xlr" modes. I have no idea what I might be overlooking or missing...any thoughts would be deeply appreciated! Thank you.

Mic not working pc38x
I just got my pc38x in the mail today and the out put is quiet but fine and I'm happy. But the mic will not work when on my Xbox series and I was wondering if this issue can be resolved or if the head set is not compatible with Xbox.
