Does it have any support for streaming services like Amazon HD, Tidal, etc? Fiio's ES9038PRO DAC's powered by battery *should* complement each others' sonic tendencies.

Sure, FiiO can stream from any of the streaming websites via WiFi. I don't stream currently, but I used to stream both Tidal and Qobuz. It's like a smartphone -- you just download your streaming app of choice directly onto the FiiO DAP.

Happy listening!

No mention of it in their specs..... - AbeCollins 20:53:39 02/05/24 (0)
...but it can stream services indirectly via Roon. In other words, it will be recognized as a Roon device and since Roon integrates with Qobuz and Tidal it will stream those services via Roon. Of course you would need a Roon subscription in addition to Tidal and Qobuz to make it work.
There are better and less expensive hardware solutions for streaming various music services IMHO.... like an iPhone or Android phone. OR piCorePlayer (pCP) software on an inexpensive DIY Raspberry Pi. Ask Cut-Throat
