Topping E30 DAC $117 on Drop
$117.00
https://drop.com/buy/topping-e30-dac
Posted last week for $110.49, but you missed that.
Still much better than the regular $129.99 price.
Additionally, this earns 1755 Drop Rewards Points [drop.com]; enough for a $15 dollar credit towards another purchase on Drop... (obviously only useful if you want something else there)
My personal opinion? A bargain at full price. Yup, I have one. More features and better sound than Khadas Tone board [amazon.com] - ($99.99), except this is complete with chassis and remote, so arguably less expensive (if you want those things... I do)
Don't ask me if it's good, read this [audiosciencereview.com] instead.
(Note you may have to remove an extra "=" from the end of the Audio Science Review link - SlickDeals keeps appending for some reason...)

SlickDeals alters the link and appends "="
Just delete that from the end of the URL. Should be:
"https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/topping-e30-dac-review.12119/"
NOT
"https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/topping-e30-dac-review.12119/="

No it is not a waste of money. I hear a considerable difference in sound quality between my headphones plugged into my cellphone vs a dedicated dac and amp desktop combo. But if you can't notice that difference (or don't care for better sound), then yeah don't buy it and save your money.

While I disagree completely with your unfounded premise, even if we stipulate that for the sake of argument, I have to ask you the following questions;
Does your reference $200 smartphone include SPDIF In?
Does it include USB in?
Does it come with a remote control so that it may be used as a preamplifier?
Are you willing to leave it sitting on your desk, permanently connected to your amplifier?
How suitable is it for use in a whole house network music streaming solution?
How can it make my Raspberry Pi sound better?
Not really looking forward to your response.
Have a nice day.
