I think this would end up sitting the draw next to my camera. For me phones are "good enough" for music given I'm mostly listening on the go so there are many more factors that influence the sound.
The best audio player is the one you have in your hand right now. (to butcher the quote) And that for me, just like my camera, is the phone that is always there.
Having said that Music, like coffee, or keyboards is a very personal thing that people connect with and so I can see the appeal of the focused device. It's similar to the e-book reader I suppose where there are not the distractions of a full connected phone. Just you and the music.
- NBJack 5y agoIt's definitely a matter of taste. I have used a few of their amps, and for me personally, it makes a world of difference in the audio quality worth the effort. Several types of headphones simply can't be driven by most phones directly. I've even gone as far as using my phone's OTG USB feature to hook up my amp as a DAC, which is admittedly awkward in my pocket. But to your point, I would miss my convenient streaming options. A good compromise are amps that use a high quality bluetooth connections, like EarStudio.
