Looking for DAP recommendations

I’m looking into getting a DAP, and was wondering what folks recommend. I’m wondering what options there are if I want something that can drive slightly demanding headphones, and handle IEMs as well. Got an open mind so just would like to hear people’s thoughts!

Depends on the budget. Just bought a Fiio X5 Gen 3 for ~230 bucks - cant be happier. But it is a older model. Fiio in general makes great DAPs for reasonable price, might wanna google them or check some z reviews

I’m in the same boat. I want the Fiio MK3 mini because the battery life is insane, but I also want a balanced output, so…

I’m currently looking at switching from my Hiby R3 to a Fiio M11 or if the rumours are correct the Fiio X9 when it gets released. The M11 has 2.5, 3.5 and 4.4 outputs and really nice specs + screen.
