I read that lg v35 has ESS 9228 DAC but there's no mention of this DAC on ESS's website. So are these articles wrong? I think it's likely to be the case cos the G7 and V30 all have ESS 9218p.
ESS 9018 like the V30, 8ch dac with 4 dac channel per Left and Right. However the amp is kind of weak, compared to my SMSL M6. I'd suggest very efficient headphones or small earbuds. I have the Monoprice M300s and have to be at Volume 60 to get any significant dynamic range.

Sup guys!
After few never ending discussions and ramblings I had bought Z1 Compact last week along with Sony XB920 (aka MDR-X10) anticipating that it could easily drive those 50mm, 24Ohms cans (Basshead).
I was quite disappointed after having it compared with my previous phone "WT19i, Live Walkman" which had better output over the Z1's. But I didn't quit there, I explored and bought the FIIO E6. I avoided USB DAC because this phone had a flap over the USBs and is really inconvenient to hook up DAC.
I must say, E6 filled the gap. The Bass, The Amplitude, all amped! I use PowerAMP for music, hasn't let me down. Being compact in size, I've been thinking to mod my second Nillkin Frost Case, and may be fix the amplifier at the back. Only thing which bothered me was the "Mini USB port" for charging on the E6, would have been convenient if it were a micro.
Would like to know if anyone has tried any other DAC or amp along with the pair of headphones used.
Snaps:
Anyone know what DAC is used in the g4 plus and what is its specs?
Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone would know how the G6 (North American Variant) compares to the V30 in terms of camera and audio output?
Here's what I have been able to dig up so far, I would be really glad if anyone could help me shine some light on them:
G6's (single) DAC is above average since it is designed for 32bit 192khz audio output. But the reviews and opinions are wildly varied
V30's quad DAC produces awesome audio output but reviews / opinions range from "not THAT impressive" to "as good as HTC10"
The camera in V30 oversaturates color

Starting Nov. 9, here in the US, Amazon Prime members can get the G6+ unlocked with 128GB and the Quad DAC.
It is very upsetting that the sound quality on this phone is not even close to the rich sound found on the Samsung S4 made 3 years before.
Is there anyway I can upgrade the sound chip on this phone? I mostly listen to Music on Youtube, Soundcloud and other streams.
for having the s4 also, I find the g6 much better, either via headphones or via the speaker (which is really good for a mono positioned on one side)
I selected the equalizer "QuadBeat", the sound is rich and detailed, yet my model is the h870, it does not have the quad DAC but the quality is superb

What? You are comparing Galaxy S4 and G6? ? H870 (without quad DAC) have pretty solid DAC and AMP, and detailed test showed that even the Galaxy S8 Exynos haven't better audio chip than G6 H870 with standard DAC. Bottom firing speaker is also crispy and very detailed. Galaxy S4, oh man please don't...
Could anyone please tell me which DAC Moto G4 uses? Also are there any details about the built-in amp that I could find? Trying to decide if an external budget mobile DAC/amp will be more helpful than just external amp for my headphones.
Thanks!
