It’s very clear yes. Sorry I haven’t followed, but if you want a warmer source without breaking bank but getting you settled for a good while, I would go Xduuo XD-05 Bal. If you want desktop, maybe look into Topping DX3 Pro +, but that’s also bright.

Here are the posts on hiss and ifi zen DAC:
Hiss is not a problem with the Zen DAC, rather an unintended outcome. All very sensitive IEMs hiss with all amp that has too much power (because it was output power set was more intended for headphones).
You hear no hiss with your Qudelix 5k, because it has variable sensitivity through the app, and you can set the output power to whatever you want, more or less.
As such, this is the reason why we created IEMatch. With it, hiss is solved!
Yep, I hear hiss with KZ ZEX and CCA C12. I also hear (less) hiss with FiiO FH9. I don’t hear hiss from 7hz timeless, MD Aria, B2 or VR3000.
As I said: It also depends on the source.
Aladdin: 108db/10ohm
Mele: 109db/16ohm
ZEX: 103db/25ohm
ZEX Pro: 104db/25ohm
Oxygen: 110db/32ohm
VR3000: 101db/18ohm
Blessing 2: 117db/22ohm
Timeless: 104db/14.8ohm
You see, it’s not straightforward. The ZEX has more impedance than the Blessing 2 and is even less sensitive (both factors making it seem the …
Do you hear a hiss with some IEMs? I have that problem with my ifi Zen DAC v1: I hear a hiss on the Mele and Aladdin, while almost nothing from KZ ZEX Pro and Oxygen, and nothing from VR3000 and my Sundara.
I’m going to write to ifi customer service and see if they have an answer. Output impedance is < 1 Ω. I hear no hiss whatsoever from my Qudelix-5k.
Edit: @sebastien_chiu_iFi , any thoughts on the cause of the hiss in some of my IEMs? I’ve provided specs below.

I would say the modules are not really useful.
More bass makes it too warm
Less bass kinda kill the purpose of the set
I liked the stock module which is the middle one.

God damn me, that is a good deal if you think about this added DT02 as well… 500$ is a lot, but if I’d sell my kidney (I have one spare)?
