E1DA 9038D6K
Zero-Noise Audio Performance
According to multiple headfiers requests: 3.5mm jack unbalanced output DAC+HPA 200mW@40ohm in the same case as #9038SG3 and # 9038D. Like the previous prototypes, 9038D6K will work with Tweak app as well. The DAC has virtually zero noise modulation behavior.
Classic Design with Laser-Engraved Aluminum Case
The 9038D6K maintained E1DA’s classical compact design and weighs only 12g. The sandblasted and black anodized aluminum case is sturdy and lightweight, while the specifics are laser-engraved and resistant to wear and tear.
Portable Equipment for HiFi Enthusiasts
The lightweight 9038D6K has performed excellently and is perfect for HiFi enthusiasts. It is suitable for daily use and to be carried around to bring high-quality audio experience with you no matter where you go.
Smooth Experience with Correct Usage
9038D6K contains a high-sensitive I/V stage that may cause audible noise when your phone uses LTE,4G, and 5G. Some newest hardware may have issues like "stuttering" with USB3(Macbook pro 2020, MS Surface 2020, Lenovo Carbone 2020, Acer SF313-52-71Y7 2020). USB audio-bridge manufacturer was informed about that and we are expecting the FW solution.

Customer Reviews
I bought this DAC on Amazon and it was the last one they had in stock. The sound quality out of the box is outstanding. Engineered and calibrated by a small Russian family who happens to live in China. Basically this is a professional trained engineer who decided to create a DAC that satisfies him and the results are fantastic. I haven’t tried adjusting any of the settings because the pre-calibrated options it came loaded with are just perfect as is. For $129 this can’t be beat. Before this I was using the HiBy FC4 and the e1DA is superior in so many ways. Sound quality is superb and there are no noise issues that I’ve encountered. Whereas the FC4 can be static sounding the E1DA sounds like I’m at a live orchestra concert. Honored to own such a wonderful product made by someone who appreciates music as much as me. Cheers.
Actually, I have had bad experience when the product arrived. It was not sounding good at all and even not compared to my creative sound blaster, but just like our new pair of headphones, it started sounding better after a few days of use. Now, it has reached up to its caliber which is good music and pleasing to hear.
But, truly speaking, I miss my E1DA 9038D verision and it was mind blowing and an absolute gem. It was like nothing can compete to that at that and above the price range it was sold. The only thing wihch i have marked is less in this K version is the sweetness, the extended range of clear highs, somehow they are diminished in this version.
The product doesn't work right and they wouldn't give me a refund. Terrible product and terrible customer service.
Very nice, small digital to analog converter which brings very nice and clear sound for affordable price. 5 stars
Este es el quinto dongle que tengo y sin duda es mi preferido , muy recomendado, compra segura 5 Estrellas
I have the Btr5 2021 and hiby Fd4 and even without MQA i enjoy the powerful 9038s which has obviously double power which make the sound of my planer tin hifi p1 plus and shuore s12 sound beautifully even at this price range it can compete with a desktop dac amp .More than happy. Looking to buy Aune for an upgrade not too expensive.
