Howdy, Reddit,

I want to share with you my full written review exploring the MOONDROP DAWN DAC AMP!

If you're looking for a mini dongle with a nice design, type-C port, and with options for both 3.5mm single ended and 4.4mm balanced outputs, this has one of the flattest presentations I've heard

Thanks for sharing. I’m looking to get something like this for IEMs on the go. I just hate the attached cable.

Yes, that can be a bit annoying, you can check out iBasso DC03PRO for a dongle with no cables attached

I’m not sure that Moondrop are “a known entry level iem producer” they have models at pretty much every price point under $1k

I even reviewed an IEM , the Illumination that's pretty high-end, but I personally cvonsider it to be an entry-level company, because that's where they sell the most

Ok, that’s kind of illogical, kind of like saying McDonald’s is a health food restaurant because they sell a lot of lettuce

But they sell mostly hamborgars - so they are a fast food restaurant. Same for Moondrop, they sell mostly Chifi entry-level products, so they're mostly an entry-level focused company who makes one or two pricier products, which is why I'd say they're moslty an entry-level focused company.
