   Looks massive and 20hours of battery life. Does 3.5 even have a dac?

      It would have to if it makes (analog) sound waves from (digital) files

         Like a fancy dac. The specs are very pedestrian for a music device.

            Apple’s $10 dongle has measured better than many fancy DACs and its silly to spend more than that on a portable setup.

            I say this as someone who has spent thousands on headphones, amps and DACs over the years. It’s a silly hobby that is far too expensive for what you get out of it
