I think phones have generally taken over MP3 players because you can do everything an MP3 player does on your phone.

But I recently bought one because I just like a single device having that unique purpose of playing music.

      probs better than the $2 DAC that came with the PC. I’m still not convinced DACs have any noticeable difference to sound quality, though.

        I mean, there is a limit on where you don’t notice anymore. Personally I believe it’s the unwanted noise and hissing that you don’t want in a DAC.

          Its a small difference in SNR but its kinda noticeable with good enough headphones (I have a Philips SHP9500)
