The JM98MAX2 redefines the dongle DAC category by pairing one of the cleanest measurements in its class with genuine drive power. At its heart is the revered Cirrus Logic CS43198 – a flagship DAC that extracts every detail from your music, while the SGM8262 operational amplifier delivers a full 195mW into 32Ω, giving you the headroom to drive demanding IEMs and even many over-ear headphones with authority. The result? A jet-black background, microscopic distortion, and a natural, expansive soundstage – all from a device smaller than your thumb.
Encased in a precision CNC-machined aluminum shell in Moonlight Silver, the JM98MAX2 looks and feels as premium as it sounds. The integrated LCD color display shows real-time volume and format information, while the detachable USB-C design means you’re never locked into a single cable – seamlessly switch between your phone, tablet, or laptop.

FAQ:
Q1:Does the JM98MAX2 work with my iPhone?
Yes. For iPhone 15 and newer with USB-C, simply connect with the included USB-C to USB-C cable. For iPhones with a Lightning port (iPhone 14 and earlier), you’ll need a separate USB-C to Lightning OTG cable. The JM98MAX2 is fully MFi-compatible when used with an appropriate cable.
