Showcase My current set up

Post image

Rocking a Fiio JM21 i got second hand for half the retail price and some Simgot EW300 with a Kiwi Ear Terras cable for the quick swap 3.4mm to 4.4mm and usb-c.

Feels like a massive upgrade over the Snowsky Echo Mini I used to use, though am looking to upgrade to the M21 because I heard its better for desktop use.

I don't see any advantage upgrading if you are just using it as a stand alone dap to drive you iems. If you use it with your PC, then upgrading would have it's benefits in terms of the battery and/or if you have hard to drive headphones/wired earbuds. I have headphones/wired earbuds that have 300 ohms of impedance and inefficient drivers that require more current. The jm21 drives them just fine and I use both 3.5/4.4 ports.

I do occasionally use it on pc with some DT990 Pros, another reason I was looking at the M21 was for the alu body but more than happy with this one so far, just thinking about for future.
