I really want to get one since 11/11 has good d eals on them, but I’m not sure if I need one.

For those of you who have one, what DAP do you use? Do you think it’s worth it?

I’m not going to buy one for purported claims of better sound quality or whatever; it would mainly be a convenience thing / separating out my phone from vs my music (like a dedicated iPod).

For streaming? No thanks.just use your phone. If you've got a very large collection of ripped high quality non compressed music then they're pretty awesome. I love my Sony and wouldn't trade it for the world but without that collection it's pointless. Hell I could argue still that it's pointless but I really love the device regardless. I'd say it's not necessary by any means but if you have the spare cash and want a spare device for high quality locally stored audio then go for it.

This. Seemed to be the best solution for storing a large library for on the go listening; my whole collection is on it. I’ve been happily enjoying my Fiio M11 Pro, it’s a neat device.
