This Dac/Amp is getting lots of hype over at ASR, and E1DA also recently came out with an unbalanced version, the 9038D. I got the 9038S G3 last week, it is a straight up powerhouse of a portable DAC/Amp. It can drive my Sundara to super loud levels. Zeos should get his hands on one, he loved the FiiO Q1 Mkii a few years ago with the 2.5mm balanced, the 9038S is even better with a lot more power and an updated USB-C.
