This is what I had in mind. I want a throw-around dac for gaming :)

Are you serious or kidding?

HiFiMeDiY? Buy a couple of their cheaper ones. it won't hurt your wallet too much if you stamp on one while you are throwing it around.

I'm serious. Gaming also benefits from good chain. Though Yggy etc level is obvious waste on gaming.

I'd rather build something, or give up and buy a Go V2.

Yes, a different class: but upsetting if you jump on it.

BTW... have you heard HFMD's little dongle's?  My first encounter was a modded one at a music-listeners' meet: It stood up well to stuff ten times the price.  I have one (unmodded*), and I occasionally bother to connect it between my tablet and 'phones when travelling, but mostly not.

*except for replacing a broken-wire USB tail

The GO V2 should be very seriously considered. Get yourself a TRRS connector and you are in business.

I like to DIY stuff for various reasons, like a extra hobby or smth.
Anyways DIY is not necessary these days to not get ripped off, it seems.
If all Changstar smarts are true (haven't tried one myself), then it's improbable I could build something better than GO V2 for its money's worth.
@ Thad: The local pirate favor biases more towards GO V2, so I must follow the crowd  p:3
