Are DAPS worth it? (lemmy.world)

DAPS have better internal hardware for audio, and it provides a distraction free listening experience, but is it worth paying a premium for one? Especially when there are more modern solutions out there such as portable Bluetooth DAC/Amps such as the Fiio BTR7 or Qudelix-5k paired with your smartphone. I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Personally, no. I use a good BT/wired portable amp and a good source app on my phone. Far cheaper and just as good. No second "phone" to cart around just for playing music.
