    Hesitatingly Onkyo DP-X1 by far, but I have not heard a lot of other shit.

    The problem @Marvey and I have found is that spending too much time in portable world makes you go bonkers. The only players I recommend are:

    1) your existing phone if you want to stay cheap.

    2) AK Jr. if there's particular synergy with your cans.

    3) ZX2 with Andromeda and UERM if you can get it for $600 or less.

    DP-X1 is kinda bass anemic, I did not like it at all. Also there is always a huge struggle with juggling SQ and QoL features in a relative value comparison. Porta-fi is by and large awful value these days (Thanks AK & JH!)

    AK Jr would have good synergy with Jupiter and probably even Andro too?

    I find between 1-2 ohms of output impedance to be the sweet spot for managing the Andromeda but others prefer sub 1 ohm output impedance. I think Marv is closer to where I am in preference so take that how you will. I don't find the andromeda dark in this situation, just resolving and fun as hell.

    Does explain your somewhat sudden want to listen to the Andromedas.
